Tokyo Toshou have "After careful consideration with the TokyoTosho staff, [...] decided to acknowledge as well as cater to our Chinese users who serve to be a prominent factor in traffic stats of TokyoTosho. Mandarin has now become the leading language in the world and we are adjusting to the times. TokyoTosho will now be known as Běijīng Túshūguǎn"
Though I must say last year's was way cooler, saying that the FBI (or whoever it was) had cracked down on the site and that your IP was logged 😉

Beware of these two groups:
SomeGuy Scans: FBI shutdown screen (HOAX?) logs ip
KTMS: My Anti-virus kicked in when I accesed this groups site detecting multiple threats!
These are ANOYING if they are april fools jokes! 😀

It totally looks like a real product, and would be a great kid bag.
Gmail's got a fun one this year and google's CADIE is kind of brilliant. Expedia has a fun/elaborate one, but an obvious joke.
Man I just saw another quitting post at a manga site and thought it was an April fools joke before I saw the date on it. I guess anyone body trying to make a series post needs to wait a day.
KMTS is also making noscript go crazy, and I'm so wondering about the various sites it's listing.

Its not a fake. You can get the chappies, you just have to enter in the slaps in the right order to get them.

Ah, youtube had a nice one.
Mangatraders was way too obvious, I mean come on a 44yr old Russian woman? 🙄
Sadly, I was just a victim of a bad prank~
