April the 1st comes early this year
Looking at the news headlines from yesterday, it seems 1 April arrived a bit too early, however, nobody has called the bluff just yet. Others reported on flying pigs and cold weather in hell.
Of the most puzzling news, was probably the one about Microsoft setting up an Open Source project on SourceForge to create a free parser for their old binary Office formats. As expected, Slashdot readers were slightly critical, comparing the free gift with a certain horse in Troy, and commenting on the two way firewalls between microsoft.com and sourceforge.org.
Here's the headlines at Slashdot:
