Happy April Fools Day!

April 2nd, 2009

April Fools is one of my top holidays (not just because it’s my birthday), but because of the creative people that have a great sense of humor.  In school it was always about some prank that you could get away with to a teacher or another classmate, but I love it when businesses use it for marketing reasons.  The best example of this is Google!

I now every year look forward to what Google has in store for us for their April Fools joke.  One of my favorites was the TiSP.  Not until they brought You Tube in the mix that it made me LOL!  On April 1st, YouTube would randomly flip everything on the screen upside down (even the movie) as a “new viewing experience“.  You can still see your favorite video the flipped version by adding the following parameter to end of your video “&flip=1″.  I love this Google tradition!
