      <title>April fools</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;It's that time of the year again. It's 9 A.M. GMT and I already found some nice stories around. Here's what I've found so far:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog.delaranja.com/adeggacom-buys-corkdcom/"&gt;Addega to buy Corkd&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.google.com/intl/en/landing/cadie/index.html"&gt;Google's Cadie&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://labs.opera.com/news/2009/04/01/"&gt;Opera face gestures&lt;/a&gt;, the funniest of them all. Watch the video:&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kkNxbyp6thM&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kkNxbyp6thM&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What else do you see out there?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Update:&lt;/b&gt; via comments, other pranks out there:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.webaserio.com/"&gt;TheMage&lt;/a&gt; points out that &lt;a href="http://torrentfreak.com/warner-bros-acquires-the-pirate-bay-090401/"&gt;Warner Brothers acquired the Pirate Bay&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;There is also the one from the Pirate Bay being bought by Warner Bros. See about that on &lt;a href="http://thepiratebay.org" rel="nofollow"&gt;the Pirate Bay&lt;/a&gt; or on &lt;a href="http://torrentfreak.com/warner-bros-acquires-the-pirate-bay-090401/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Torrent Freaks&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
