Happy April Fools' Day: April 1, 2011

[Lara F]

Love the Apple Store Playmobil set.

This happened to come up when I did a search for Spotify last night - almost got my hopes up for a moment! (But no, I never believed they'd close down Europe...)

What?????

April Fool's Day jumped the shark some years ago. It's time to turn April Fool's Day on its head and announce real new products on April 1.

You mean they aren't really releasing the iphone 5 next week.

Are You Kidding Me? This Is Pathetic!!!

Is Google following Microsoft down the road to oblivion chasing pink ponies?

I have never seen such a waste of time in my life.

I use Gmail but will be switching to another email provider unless they retain the "classic" Gmail.

These tech companies are finding ways to plumb new lows!!!!

I love the look of the guy demoing the Google Motion. Hilarious

The Playmobile store looks freakin awesome. I would definitely buy one if it were to be made/sold. My son loves these Playmobile toys, but I don't think I would give him that one.

I like Googles April Fools Joke with Gmail Motion. The actors were amazing.

The autocompleter one too, maybe Apple should hire some autocompleters

MacRumors does not participate in April Fools' Day prank news stories

On a rumors site, almost every news item looks like April Fools' Day prank news. Especially after the real thing is delivered.

So how soon before ThinkGeek starts selling Apple Store toys. Doesn't just about ever one of their April Fools' jokes turn in to a real product?

I totally want that thing! I'd pony up 300 bills for one. Yeah, seriously. All this, in spite of my 180 turn against Lost spanning the last 3 seasons. (felt the show went to crap, IMO) But that clock is still epic win.
