Here's my favorite April Fool's stuff from this year so far:

Hulu (1996 Edition) - Mulder, nooooo!
Think Geek Products - I WANT ANGRY BIRD PORK RINDS!
GMail Motion - Double thumbs back!

What about you guys?

In a german tv-show, they had a report about Google indoors, that was very nice ^^
As a short explaination: Google Street View was a big topic a little while ago. People here wanted to make their houses not recognizable in the internet.
Now they reported about the new Google indoors, they come to your home, photograph your rooms but they agreed to make everything worth more than 5.000 Euro not recognizable. Also faces of people, of course.
They litteraly rushed in to a house, with a 360° cam on a helmet and rushed out.
For the report they stated, that "today" (april 1st) would be the last day people could disaggree to this service. So everyone who wouldn't, would have his rooms photographed and can't do anything about it.

This was on a station that mostly older people watch. And I guess a LOT of people fall of it because of their age or not knowing the internet that well... ;3

Years ago, back when I was in high school, someone put a thing of dry ice in a box/container in a trash bin in the middle of the school campus. Well, the joke turned on him when the freaking bomb squad was called for the "suspicious device" and the entire school was evacuated. They found out who did it eventually and he may not have been able to graduate like he was supposed to that year..

Not April fools, but perhaps one of the greatest accidental (?) hoaxes of all time:
