Interesting links for April 2nd 2008:
- Bringing the cloud with you [Official Google Docs Blog] – Google edges even further in Microsoft’s heartland as Google Docs becomes available offline!

Microsoft Patents Ones and Zeroes!
From the LAMP Watercooler:
In a stunning revelation today Bill Gates announced that Microsoft has won exclusive rights to the use of 0’s and 1’s in perpetuitity. In a statement released earlier today Gates was quoted as saying: “Yeah… all that Anti-Trust hoo-hah was just a furphy while we were sneaking this one under the radar…” Not content with owning virtually everything in the known world, Microsoft has now, effectively bought up the rights to all software, hardware “wetware” and in fact, the entire universe including black holes and stars.
And that’s not all! Yes, in Australia it’s already April 1st!
