FLHooker Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I called Richard the other day to discuss things...

crfracer Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 did anyone read through the whole website? It was pretty freakin' detailed for an april fools joke. I particularly liked the communications/life support/entertainment system on board the transportation module. "Crew members will communicate with these machines via an auditory Holistic Artificial Language interface visually mediated by a glowing red light." this was a bit of a give away on what the whole thing was about, but still very funny.

goromadgo Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 For those not familar Google has a (fairly) long tradition of April Fools Day jokes that are well thought out. I still signed up Another great one was TiSP (Toilet Internet Service Provider). Yesterday they also ran "Gmail Custom Time" in case you wanted that email to get there a few days ago using its "e-flux capicator" check out this link for more of their April Fool's Day jokes:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google's_hoaxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future206Pilot Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Yea, I know I was pokin fun I must agree, they went to extreme detail in their joke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLHooker Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I think it's awesome how detailed they go. I didn't know that they make a point of it every year to do that. Google just gained a bunch of cool points in my book. CHAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
