So, as everyone knows (or doesn’t) today is April Fool’s Day. A joyous day in which boys and girls, young and old, play many pranks on each other and in the end say the famous ole: APRIL FOOL’S DAY quote! I really do love this day, its just so much fun seeing all the pranks we can pull on other people and see how they actually fall for it. What’s even better is when popular websites all over the internet join in on the fun as well.

Google is one of the many websites who like to “fool” around every year and every year they never disappoint. Below is a list of some sites I found playing some great and funny to read/watch April Fool’s Day pranks.

Google.com
Gmail.com
CafePress.com (OMG! This one was hilarious, I believed it until I got to the testimonials and laughed for a very long while! Two thumbs up for CafePress.com)
LiveJournal.com
IGN.com

Other then all of that, what did you do today? Did you pull any pranks, or maybe were pranked on? Tell me all of your April Fool’s Day stories, past and present! =D

So, at first I was a little weary on upgraded my poorly out-of-date WordPress version since one, I had said I was going to scrap it, and two, because I didn’t want anything bad happening in the end. I’ve been through many forums and post where someone always has a problem with upgrading. Yea, I was little scared, but I got over it, downloaded WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin and watched it do it’s work. Pretty impressive if you ask me.

Now my big thoughts on WP 2.5…WOW! The dashboard is so much better then the last version’s. Very clean and simple, yet pleasing to the eye. I haven’t really gone through it all yet to see what new features I can find, but so far from what I’ve noticed on improved things, very well done! I just might stick with WP for a while longer. Hee XD

Now onto unrelated WP topics! I have a lot of ideas for future websites, that some just keep popping out of nowhere and others have been stuck in my brain for a few years now and I feel that I can finally make come true. One of them being my online shop. I already have the perfect name for it, at first I was going to use this domain (urbanroxy.com) but then decided that I should just keep as my personal blog domain, since it does reflect me a lot. Anywho, so I checked for the name I thought of and it’s very much available in the .com, .net, and .org. For now, I’m thinking of just buying the .com and .org, if by chance there is a special for all there (which sometimes there is) I will go for all three.

Another excitement of mine, if the polishing (since I’ve been working on it for forever now) of my own hosting website. Its not going to be anything big, but mostly geared towards hosting personal, fan, portfolio, websites and along that path. Nevertheless I have been putting sometime into it these past few weekends and hope to open it soon to the public!

Last but not least, I’m also currently thinking of purchasing my own server! While the current shared server that I am hosted on has been EXTREMELY good to me these past couple of years, I don’t want accidentally cause trouble to my great neighbors with all of my up and coming website ideas. Trust me I have more ideas then the ones mentioned above that have to do with a full blown out film/video portfolio and I know for a fact that can be a little crazy on a shared environment. I’ll keep ya posted on those updates. =D
