Today web 2.0 breaks down (rant)

[rant]
Today is the one day of the year (april's fool) where social web apps / web 2.0 news sites (and forums) are garbage.

When reading forums / digg, all I come across are these sad atempts for april fool's jokes. Most of them aren't even funny. "Google buys Microsoft for $1, Russel Peters dies, blah blah blah".

Comm'on people! At least be creative or try harder than posting a fake news story. I guess web 2.0 really does reflect the masses and what does it say about them today? Well...you know.

Web 2.0 is bollocks. There's no Web 1 or Web 1.5 or anything. The Web is a continuously improving network that never stops. The idea of a version two of the Web makes me laugh.

However, you're right, we need some April fools jokes on a bigger scale. Like, aliens landing in the White House or something.

Web is always 1.0, but 2.0 is the vision of the perfection. Think of it as the horisont :)

Hey, screw internet april fools jokes.

I just convinced my mom and brother I got my girlfriend pregnant, and my dad that my dog had died.

I'm working overtime. What have you done so far?

I just woke up

My fiance found "secret love letters" in my drawer to a woman called "Jane". I went out, asked her to pick out clothes for me for when we go out in the evening, and she "came across" the letters.

And now I aint going back home till the evening :D I dont believe in that crap where April Fools ends at 12PM, so mine's gonna run into the night :D

I can imagine that: "hey, so you have your secret love, well, i have something to confess: remember John and Mike, well, I've been dating both of them. I was just looking for a good excuse to leave you, and now I've found it. So, good night and good luck with Jane." :D

Thats why the one thing I never toy with on April Fool's is my relationships ;)
