I have always loved Google's April fools day things. They are always
very well done. Just for kicks, I went back to find some of the older
ones and realized that Google has done multiple April Fools jokes for
the last few years. I guess most of the Google teams wanted in on the fun.

This year, I was lucky enough to remember very early in the day that it
was April Fools. Even so, I probably would have been taken in, except
that I did not have enough time except to scan the article and get back
to it later. By the time later had returned, I had remembered the date
enough, and realized that Google always does something for a joke...
