Wikipedia Covers April Fool's Hoaxes

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Saturday April 1, 2006 @12:25PM from the check-out-what-you-missed dept.

vladd_rom writes "Wikipedia maintains an up to date list with April Fools hoaxes from this year. The list already includes hundreds of entries. Among the most popular, one could find Google Romance, a new Google.com project, Google Browser, as well as Yahoo!'s desire to buy all Web 2.0 companies on the web. However, it seems that this year hoaxes will be more interconnected: the wiki page already includes some websites that announced that they have been bought by Yahoo!, and linked to Yahoo!'s blog post from their pages."

For FF 1.5 with Slashdotter 1.2.2 extension. Adds functionality for:

Copy it to replace the one used by the Slashdotter extension in your FF profile files (for Windows users, that's in your Documents and Settings folder.)

Prepend a '!' - this is the equivalent of negating a tag.
