Google frequently inserts jokes and hoaxes into its products on April Fools' Day, which takes place on April 1. Google's first April Fools' Day hoax, the Mental. Plex hoax, invited users to project a mental image of what they wanted to find whilst staring at an animated gif.[1] Several humorous error messages[2] were then displayed on the search results page,[3] all listed below: Error 0. KUT Weak or no signal detected. Upgrade transmitter and retry. Error 6. 66: Multiple transmitters detected. Silence voices in your head and try again. Error 0. 1: Brainwaves received in analog. Please re- think in digital. Error 8. P: Unclear on whether your search is about money or monkeys. Please try again. Error 0. 05: Searching on this topic is prohibited under international law.

Please clap hands 3 times, while chanting "I believe" and try again. Error: Mental. Plex™ has determined that this is not your final answer. Please try again. An additional error message was included which converted all navigation text to German, but was scrapped after user complaints.[4]Google reveals the technology behind its Page. Rank Systems—Pigeon. Rank. Google touts the benefits of this cost- effective and efficient means of ranking pages and reassures readers that there is no animal cruelty involved in the process. The article makes many humorous references and puns based on computer terminology and how Google Page. Rank really works, (for example, a chart showing the pigeons' consumption of linseed and flax, represented as "Lin/Ax Kernels," a pun on the Linux kernel).[5]Fictitious job opportunities for a research center on the moon. Luna/X (a pun to Linux and the Latin word for moon, as well as a reference to both the Windows XP visual style and Mac OS X) is the name of a new operating system they claimed to have created for working at the research center. Google Job Opportunities: Google Copernicus Center is hiring [7]Google also announced Gmail on April 1, with an unprecedented and unbelievable free 1 GB space, compared to e. Hotmail's 2 MB. The announcement of Gmail was written in an unserious jokey language normally seen in April Fools' jokes, tricking many into thinking that it was an April Fools' joke. In reality, it was a double fake, in that the announced product was serious.[8]Google Gulp, a fictitious drink, was announced by Google in 2. According to the company, this beverage would optimize one's use of the Google search engine by increasing the drinker's intelligence. It was claimed this boost was achieved through real- time analysis of the user's DNA and carefully tailored adjustments to neurotransmitters in the brain (a patented technology termed Auto- Drink; as the "Google Gulp FAQ" suggests, partly through MAO inhibition). The drink was said to come in "4 great flavors": Glutamate Grape (glutamic acid), Sugar- Free Radical (free radicals), Beta Carroty (Beta- Carotene), and Sero- Tonic Water (serotonin).[9]This hoax was probably intended as a parody of Google's then invite- only email service called Gmail. Although ostensibly free, the company claimed the beverage could only be obtained by returning the cap of a Google Gulp bottle to a local grocery store: a causal loop. In the Google Gulp FAQ, Google replies to the observation "I mean, isn't this whole invite- only thing kind of bogus?" by saying "Dude, it's like you've never even heard of viral marketing."On April Fool's Day 2. Google Romance was announced on the main Google search page with the introduction, "Dating is a search problem. Solve it with Google Romance." It pretends to offer a "Soulmate Search" to send users on a "Contextual Date". A parody of online dating, it had a link for "those who generally favor the 'throw enough stuff at the wall' approach to online dating" to Post multiple profiles with a bulk upload file, you sleaze in addition to Post your Google Romance profile. Clicking on either of these gave an error page, which explained that it was an April Fool's joke and included links to previous April Fool's jokes. Google Romance[1. Google Romance FAQ[1. Google Romance Tour[1. Gmail Paper[edit]At about 1. Pacific time (where Google has its headquarters) on March 3. Google changed the login page for Gmail to announce a new service called Gmail Paper. The service offered to allow users of Google's free webmail service to add e- mails to a "Paper Archive", which Google would print (on "9. The service would be free, supported by bold, red advertisements printed on the back of the printed messages. Image attachments would also be printed on high- quality glossy paper, though MP3 and WAV files would not be printed. The page detailing more information about the service features photographs of Ian Spiro and Carrie Kemper, current employees of Google. Also featured are Product Marketing Managers of Gmail Anna- Christina Douglas, and Shane Lawrence. Gmail Paper Index[1. Gmail Paper Announcement[1. Gmail Paper Program Policies[1. Google Ti. SP[edit]Google Ti. SP (short for Toilet Internet Service Provider) was a fictitious free broadband service supposedly released by Google. This service would make use of a standard toilet and sewage lines to provide free Internet connectivity at a speed of 8 Mbit/s (2 Mbit/s upload) (or up to 3. Mbit/s with a paid plan). The user would drop a weighted end of a long, Google- supplied fiber- optic cable in their toilet and flush it. Around 6. 0 minutes later, the end would be recovered and connected to the Internet by a "Plumbing Hardware Dispatcher (PHD)". The user would then connect their end to a Google- supplied wireless router and run the Google- supplied installation media on a Windows XP or Windows Vista computer ("Mac and Linux support coming soon"). Alternatively, a user could request a professional installation, in which Google would deploy nanobots through the plumbing to complete the process. The free service would be supported by "discreet DNA sequencing" of "personal bodily output" to display online ads that relate to culinary preferences and personal health. Google also referenced the diet coke- and- Mentos reaction in their FAQ: "If you're still experiencing problems, drop eight mints into the bowl and add a two- liter bottle of diet soda." They also claim that Enterprise plans will include support in the event of backup problems, brownouts and data wipes. Google Ti. SP[1. 8]Google Ti. SP FAQ[1. 9]Installation page[2.

Blogger "Google Weblogs (beta)"[edit]The Blogger dashboard featured an announcement for Google Weblogs, or "GWeblogs," or "Gblogs," the next revolution in personal publishing. Features include algorithms putting the user's best content at the top of the user's blog (rather than publishing by reverse chronology), automatically populating the blog's sidebar with the most relevant content, posting directly into Google search results for maximum visibility, blog headers refreshed with images from Google's team of artists for anniversaries of a scientific achievement (similar to Google Doodle), and automatic content generation ('Unsure of what to post about? Just click "I'm Feeling Lucky" and we'll "take care" of the rest!')The announcement was followed by a link to a video tour of the product, which actually led to Tay Zonday's cover of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up."Blogger Buzz: The Official Buzz from Blogger at Google: Announcing Google Weblogs (beta)[2.

Gmail Custom Time[edit]Gmail's sign- in page and a banner at the top of each Gmail inbox announced a new feature, called Gmail Custom Time, that would allow its users to "pre- date" their messages and choose to have the message appear as "read" or "unread". The new feature uses the slogan "Be on time. Every time."Around 1. EST March 3. 1, 2.
