Subject: Happy April Fools!
Hi all-
For those of you who celebrate April Fools Day (http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools'_Day) and are looking for a
sufficiently dorky way to fool your friends and family, I put together
a quick mashup to let you position a "trick" over someone's home:
http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/maphaz/googlemaps.htm

You can pick a brontosaurus, godzilla, sinkhole, earthquake, giant
bug, or blur.
In the permalink, it will hide the customization until they mouse
over.

Let me know if you actually manage to fool anyone.. :) - pamela

I actually preferred GMail Paper over TISP - http://mail.google.com/mail/help/paper/more.html

Phillip at Google Blogoscoped tried to pretend that a Google Drive
blog post had nearly gone up  - http://blog.outer-court.com/archive/2007-04-01-n77.html

Doing a search for "april fools"  on google.com/blogsearch will turn
up a good amount of blogs detailing the various other pranks done
yesterday.
