First

It's April First and it's time to look at all the fake news and specials today. Going around the web and finding all the treats is a hard work but luckily the every site in existence gleefully posts their findings. And some are truly awesome - like CERN's scientist discovering the Force (so this is what the LHC upgrade was really about). And I'm sure even John Oliver would agree the PacMan Google maps should be a permanent option. Judging from experience at least some of the Thinkgeek joke products will become real (it's becoming less of a joke and more product testing every year) - I know everyone's rooting for Groot Beer but think about all those selfies. But I laughed (full lol) the most when I saw Samsung Galaxy Blade Edge. Cameras, phones, watches, kitchen utensils...

These were just my favourites but everyone has tons of others. BBC concentrated on the tech sites. So did Gawker sites really - Lifehacker started theirs early so you could spend the day exploring them and Kotaku just picked their favourites. Tor.com has some author news - from grrm narrative breakthroughs to mistborn cloning experiments and Stephen King's return to TV. And countless people live in dread they may not have been joking. There is also picture collection of many of the pranks. Like photos from vacations on the internet that you can then turn into memes.
