April 1st, this season

gone are the days when "look at your back, something is coming!" was supposed to be the best april fool joke from your 8 year old friend. with age, the jokes start to become more immaculately planned; and much more innocent looking ones. following suit, the most elaborate joke i have ever witnessed was executed by the one of the most popular indian blogs
today - Sepia Mutiny. if you missed out on witnessing all the drama develop, and then fizzle out on the 1st of April, you can catch a summary of the events that took place from these links:

it featured on desipundit too!! i got to know about this hoax much earlier though, thanks to the efforts of one vikas from desicritics to do a simple whois(duh!) and discover the expiry date of the domain name to be august 2006.

the other april fool joke was played by desipundit itself. see this.
Desicritics had this: Interview with Ganguly
Google had this: Google Romance
Linus Torvalds Joins Debian
A big list of april fool jokes

then there were many others. one of my friends got "engaged" on the eve of april 1st. are we going to fall for it?
