    Google releases the technology behind their web searches:

    The link to the story is on their front page: http://www.google.com

    For the truly lazy, click here.

    Hilarious, and well done!

    Hey, I don't know about you guys but I think google has a story about their search engines as an april 1 joke. Click here for the link.

    Of course, this was already mentioned in the 1st two posts of this thread but maybe someone missed it the 1st two times. :D:D:D

    Yeah, that was the best one I've read so far today, so of course we should try to keep it high on the list, and mentioned often. Though I have to say the Duke Nukem one had something pretty funny about the WheatoniX operating system, developed by Wil Wheaton.
