Every year I miss out on these. For one reason or another, I don’t get online until afternoon, when most of the stuff is over. So this year I’m gonna try and list those I see. And I’m doing it here, so others can help out.

…slightly off topic, but a BMW dealership did a “reverse” April Fools.
They put an advert up saying “April Fools!” Then promised to give a $50,000 BMW away to the first customer to bring in the coupon. Then when someone came in with the coupon, they gave the car away!
When I go to maps.google.com I don’t see any pacman symbol. I’ve tried to zoom in on all levels and nothing happens. Is there some trick to get it to work?
Also, I got the Google map thing to work in Firefox by zooming out the page to 90%. You know, with Ctrl-+ and Ctrl - .
And what davidm says means it’s official, as it uses a proper Google URL It holds for videos, too. I didn’t notice because I clicked them before typing anything to search.
I’m in Firefox and clicking on your link worked for me. In the bottom left corner I see an earth view and a Pacman view…and I’m wondering if I’ve fallen for your April Fool’s joke.
