Google Pranks

Google has a big tradition of launching some pranks on April Fools day. I am not sure if there is a department in google to do just this and think up a spam for each year.

Google should have spent a fortune...(Fortune atleast for us the less fortunate ones) to host the links and introduce that in it's pages and more so think and come up with the pranks. I initially thought that this is all a big waste of money and resources. But coming to think of it..I can't help it that the first thing I did after I switched on my computer is to check the Google and Gmail pages to see what they have come up with this year. I guess if they fail to do this for a year now millions of techies around the world would be disappointed...

here are the few pranks that come to my mind ..
The toilet pranks that came last year(2008)
The paper emails before that...

Interestingly enough Google released GMAIL with 1GB storage on April 1st. May that was part of a hoax and since it evoked too much interest google went ahead and created the project :-) Just may be...what do you think...?
