About Today: 13 Google April Fool's Day Pranks

From Jen Hubley, your About Today Editor
If you look up the world "gullible" in the dictionary, there's a picture of my face. OK, not really. I tried it, and it turned out to be an expression. However, the fact is, I'm the world's greatest audience for an April Fool's joke, because I almost always fall for it.

Topeka Changes Its Name to Google, Kansas
Why has Topeka, Kansas (sort of) renamed itself "Google, Kansas -- The Capital City of Fiber?" We'll give you a hint: It has nothing to do with breakfast cereal.

Google Changes Its Name to Topeka
Google, not to be outdone, has changed its name to Topeka. Even after they change it back, I'm going to use Topeka as a verb. I'll topeka anything I need to know.

What's Your Favorite Prank?
Mine is definitely 2002's Pigeon Rank, in which Google claimed their results were based on the pecking of highly trained pigeons.

The Prank That Wasn't: Gmail
Gmail was released on April Fool's Day, causing some people to think it was, in itself, a joke. It wasn't, of course, but some of the contextual advertising is accidentally hilarious.
