April fools: YouTube turns the world up-side-down

It's april fools today and all around the web april fools jokes are popping up. The first one I noticed this morning was YouTube being flipped up-side-down. YouTube automatically turned it's page upside down by adding "&flip=1" to their page.

Google also went for april fools . They introduced "CADIE" "a powerful new technique for solving reinforcement learning problems, resulting in the first functional global-scale neuro-evolutionary learning cluster.". The CADIE-homepage might just give something away...

Google developers have gone all the way with CADIE, anouncing several (somewhat ridicolous at times) features like Google Brain Search.

A lot of april fools jokes have shown up. Techcrunch posted a list. There we can for example see the Gmail Autopilot and Yahoo's ideological search.

Have you seen any more April fool jokes? Let us know!
