    www.xkcd.com
    and their forums got autocorrect, such as
    minecraft -> digital crack and lego
    randall -> mewtwo
    And over 200 more.

    www.minecraft.net/store/loot.jsp
    I found this trough a chest ingame.

    www.kongregate.com
    It is now called kongstop (the url www.kongstop.com also redirects to kongregate).
    You can also trade in used flash games for 1 point each, up to 5 points in total. xD

    And myself, I didnt come up with any good april jokes this year. I did dl a bsod screensaver tho, and hotkey it to ctrl + alt+ s, and fool a few ppl that I got bsod when I saved in word. Repeated this a few times, pressing esc to return to word, and then fake saved, showing it several times to ppl who didnt understand that it wasnt a real bsod :S.

    I also came up with a new 3d tech, a screen where there is several layers of screens in it, and lenses to make the distance look bigger, then I fooled ppl that 3ds used that :P. I know its a bad joke, but it is a interesting idea. If the screens are transparent enough, or if they arent all in a stack and instead have mirrors making you able to see all of them, that might actually work sort off (maybe something like 800 * 400 * 50 in resolution?).

    I also heard that google hires autocompleters, and read that they done something with youtube movies.

    Not really, its a recursive loop because of self-reference.

    April Fools on the internet is a ###### waste of time and anyone who enjoys it is a retard.




    That said, that soldering iron is one of the better ones, because it's not the typical stupid moronic cliche 'Here's a page full of complete and total lies to make the mouth-breathing dip######s of the world go "OMG TEH SITE R CLOZIN!??? ?YYYYY??!"'

    Or my favorite 'Here's a changelog for our mod with all kinds of stupid ###### on it LOLOLOLOLROFLROLFOFROMGOMGOMFDOMOFRFLROFOFRFROIrf;uia;hcSHF:IOUFH:OIWUEF:OWEIFHJ
