If you use Harvest for time tracking, they have a nice, simple gag today: The usual nameplate link in the bottom right has changed to "HARVESTVS • SINCE MMVI" and clicking on it will change all of your time entries to Roman numerals.

Adblock releases Adblock Freedom - augmented reality eyewear that detects and removes ads from the world in realtime. http://chromeadblock.com/freedom/

I read that as "Adblock Freemium", i.e. Ad-supported ad-blocking.

that would be a pretty cool idea

Here at Grooveshark, we've harnessed the power of HTML5™ to provide you with a full 3D experience... http://listen.grooveshark.com/ If you have a paid account, it won't change your theme automatically though. You should get a notification in the corner to turn it on.

Yeah, I saw this last night. I'm not a subscriber anymore and it was really annoying and I was confused. I didn't even think of April Fools though. Good one.
