I liked the Joey Skaggs one, a non-existent April fools parade with police floats "portraying themes of brutality, corruption and incompetence."

Did anyone get any good April fool jokes/sites?

I got one about shutting the internet down for essential maintenance. Oh and
the one about Apache webserver running on a Palmpilot.

This: http://www.minidisc.org/mz-r110pda.htm has also appeared; since it was
posted on April 1 some have claimed it's an April fool, but it seems
completely feasible: a Minidisc recorder with PalmOs in it, MP3 compatible.
The 8Mb RAM beats the pants off my Palm V, but slot in a blank MiniDisc for
140Mb of storage (if you don't use one of these devices you might not
realise how *much* that is for a PalmOs device - although if the main use is
MP3 I guess you'd use that up fast enough).

Haven't x-checked the Sony site yet tho
