Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the month changing; I don't even mind spring. Of course my problem with it is "April Fool's Day." It was once a little day, full of spaghetti harvests and walking beavers. Now, every department at Google has to have one, and Thinkgeek uses it to test out product ideas. I guess my main complaint is because we try to keep the news relevant and accurate (and/or fair and balanced), and having this noise makes it difficult. It's like you can't trust anyone anymore. Anyway, it's almost over. Oh, and Shane reminds me that we never did get back to you about the question we asked a while back about the subject line for the newsletter. As it turns out, the votes to change and to not change were exactly identical, so we're not changing it for now. Keep reminding us, and perhaps we'll change it in the future.
