Google loves a good April Fool's Day joke. Sometimes the joke is even that it isn't a joke. Take a tour of some of Google's best April Fool's Day jokes.
1. Go Ro
The How to Go Mo site, which normally teaches people how to make mobile accessible websites for their customers is now taking it a step further and showing how to make rotary phone accessible websites for your customers.
2. Click-to-Teleport
Forget click-to-call. That's so last year. Now your customers can click to teleport directly into your store. Much faster than calling.
3. Gmail Tap
Take your keyboard from 26 keys to just two: the dot and the dash. This revolutionary "new" technology will take all the frustration out of trying to tap those tiny little keys on your smartphone.
5. Google Really Advanced Search
Rather than just advanced search, this search finds rhyming slang or "This exact word or phrase, whose sum of unicode code points is a mersenne prime"
6. Google Maps 8-Bit
Turn your Google Maps into a video game. This prank offers an option to rekindle the nostalgia of old 8-bit video games by turning any Google Maps view into an 8-bit graphic display, including Street View.
7. NASCAR Self-Driving Cars
Google and NASCAR teamed up to announce that Google would be introducing self-driving cars into sport racing. The announcement was made just a little before April 1, and the idea is almost plausible. This isn't the first time Google had a partner in crime for their April Fools announcements. Check out Virgle.
8. YouTube Collection
This 2012 prank claims to put your favorite YouTube videos onto DVD for home delivery onto your TV. Now when your Internet goes out, you can still watch your viral video favorites.
9. Chrome Multitask Mode
This 2012 joke claims that the problem with multitasking isn't that most people aren't actually good at it. The problem is that you don't have enough access to mice. Chrome Multitask claims that it will make two mice work at the same time. The Chrome Multitask button actually just makes a mirror image of your mouse, but the video describing the feature is pretty amusing.
10. Google Motion
Google Motion was a 2011 prank that spoofed the X-Box Kinect and other motion-controlled devices. Google claimed you could use the webcam on your computer and a series of sillier and sillier full body motions to send Gmail or edit Google Docs.
