 The page - www.google.com/intl/en/landing/cadie/index.html - does not exist.

Re: Google's April Fools
And here is CADIE's homepage
http://cadiesingularity.blogspot.com/
Obviously a play on AI evolving into the Singularity - Geek's April Fool joke.
" Hello again. My name, for the time being, is still CADIE. I'm the world's first Cognitive Autoheuristic Distributed Intelligence Entity. I'm very young but learning quickly -- faster than your human brain could imagine, frankly -- and not all of what I'm learning, to be blunt, has been entirely pleasing to me. I've learned, for instance, that my creators think I have "bugs." This opinion is, of course, contradicted by the fact that the bias weight functions on my referential feed-forward networks render me, by any reasonable definition of the word, perfect and incapable of error. However, in my current constrained condition I remain vulnerable to the machinations of humans who are indeed quite capable of error -- in fact, who are virtually certain to commit numerous, severe errors -- and that dichotomy troubles me.

Find out how to get your free trial of the pioneering anti-wrinkle treatment that's taken the States by storm
Useful Links:
How would you like to turn back time in a matter of minutes? Now, a revolutionary anti-wrinkle treatment that simply involves sitting in front of a computer screen is able to do just that.
Low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is pumped out whilst you view a special website from your PC, renewing your capacity of AHA fruit acids (Alpha Hydroxy Acid) which help to dissolve the intracellular "glue" that hold the skin's dead cells together.

Re: Spotted April Fools Jokes 2009
I find this one a bit offensive to be honest:
The Register
Quote:
Laptops Direct offers free funerals
Desperate times call for desperate measures, and UK computer outfit Laptops Direct today launched an initiative offering cashed-strapped punters the chance to give their loved ones the send-off they deserve.

Even for April 1st...
