If you're a freuquent reader of the ever-growing blogosphere, you might have heard about the prank with the new Death Cab For Cutie album-leak (if not, read about it in detail here). The same guy that uploaded the new Interpol-album last year (which turned out to be songs from Swedish band Cut City), did it again this year. But instead of getting DCFC's latest release, the leechers that fell for it got a collection of songs from German band Velveteen.Now you can think what you want about that foolery, but the fact remains that the Germans got some free promotion for their music, and that really is a good thing! I have not downloaded the leak, but the band offers some of their songs on the homepage. And while there are indeed some similarities to Death Cab For Cutie - especially voice-wise

Let me tell you... I really entertained myself yesterday. Here are some of the jokes I played on people:Blair - My wife is pregnant. Ha ha. That's what she gets for giving me a pregnant scare a couple of weeks ago. I gave her the old April Fools! at the end of the day. No sex for me, I'll tell you that. For at least a week. Athena the Lesbian - I got a little curious the other night and I think I'm gay. I didn't let that one go very long. I could see her passing that rumor on immediately with telepathy. Blendi the Unvirgin - I know you're an unvirgin now, but I can't have sex with you because I've become a born again virgin myself. She laughed in my face and said April Fools! How stupid do you think I am? Kristy (formally Wheels) - They've finally proven that all the moon landings hav

April Fools for kids Pranks to pull on your co-workers Top 100 April Fools hoaxes of all time More April Fools linksThe origins of April Fools' Day are shrouded in mystery, experts say. The most popular theory is that France changed its calendar in the 1500s so that the New Year would begin in January to match the Roman calendar instead of the start of spring in late March or early April. However word of the change traveled slowly, and many people in rural areas continued to celebrate the New Year in the spring. These country dwellers became known as "April fools." Boese, who has studied the holiday's origin, disagrees with that interpretation. "[The French] theory is completely wrong, because the day that the French celebrated the beginning of the year legally was Easter day, so it

This is a little trick I've pulled on some family members in the past and most recently on my boss for April Fools. All you need for this is a working version of Adobe Flash.If you cant see whats happening, basically the effect is that the desktop looks like its moving back and forth.So all I am doing here is tweening 2 instances of the desktop (which i Print Screened) over a static instance. Then all you do is full screen the SWF on your targets desktop. You can do a lot with this little gag including; hiding the users mouse, popping up text and moving icons at will.Back when GMail did their YouTube contest, i used this gag to simulate the envelope moving across multiple screens.A few things to remember when doing this are: Make sure your stage width and height are the same as the target

I've said it was because I've been busy and simply haven't had the time to go through the routine of listening and posting.I lied.The reason I haven't been posting is because I've actually lost complete faith in the concept of independent music.

If I'm going to be spending all this time posting and making artists more money, I best be getting my paper too.So this is the deal.

But your enriched descendants will appreciate your sacrifice, which should render worthwhile your choice to spend the rest of your (perhaps radically foreshortened) life in deprivation and uncertainty.”They (two co-founders of Google) have even put a convincing 1 minute youtube video about it, see it here.

I thought I'd share with everyone Mark Toth's (from the Manpower Employment Blawg) excellent thoughts on how not to get sued on April Fools' Day:

In which case we all would be truly fools, and not just for one day.
