Google's April Fools Joke
« on: April 01, 2011, 11:41:19 AM »
My guess is that this year's joke is the Gmail Motion BETA.  ::)

Also, possibly the 1911 Viral Videos Spotlight topic.

edit: confirmed:

Yeah, if you click to try GMail Motion BETA you get this.

haha, I didn't even click the gmail one since I figured it was definitely a joke.

The razor one is hilarious. :D

This appeared on my local paper's website. Presumably an April Fool since it appeared today, it still freaked the kids out when they saw it.  ;D
