Let the internet pranking begin!
YouTube, capitalizing on the resurgence of a popular meme, has booby-trapped each of the "featured videos" on its homepage.
Click on any of the showcased clips and you'll be taken instead to a cheesy video of pop singer Rick Astley singing his late-'80s hit song, "Never Gonna Give You Up."
Known as rickrolling, it's the practice of tricking someone into watching the video for Astley's song by posting a misleading link. So far, YouTube UK and YouTube Australia are also participating in the joke.
Seen any other crazy April Fools' Day pranks?
So far, we've noticed: the Gizmodo gang posting in the voice of Mr. T;
USB Pregnancy Tests, YouTube Tazers and more from geek gift site ThinkGeek's roster of spoof products;
the first recorded video of penguins flying.
