Yahoo's April Fools Trick! Holy Shit!
 
Holy Shit!

Yahoo's April fools joke - they added a banner to the top of the search results, in rotation, that says "add your banner here free for a day".

When you click on it, it asks you for the location of the banner to hotlink to, verifies it can pull it, and PUTS IT INTO ROTATION AT THE TOP OF THE SEARCH RESULTS.

It took a while to find it, but my god, it's up there!

400 clicks in the last 30 minutes alone I shit you not.

You could write a better joke. They don't even show banners in the search results page last time I checked.

They do have banner spots.

It would be very cool if this were true.

Good joke. Almost as funny as the google joke. I can see it now, hundreds of jackasses clicking refresh. That's almost as productive as clicking refresh on CNN's screen looking for the 'secret' embedded pics of Gary Coleman and a donkey.
