Google's Toilet ISP

Oh, those goofy Googlers... the company launched its usual April Fool's Day joke yesterday with a press release announcing the arrival of Google TiSP, a service delivering free broadband... through your toilet.

The site offers step-by-step installation instructions -- though a professional installation service, provided by nanobots, is also available. "For your own physical safety and emotional well-being and in consideration of the nanobots' working conditions, please make absolutely certain that your toilet is unoccupied at the scheduled appointment time," the site warns.

The site's FAQ includes the following gem: "Why is TiSP in beta? When things go wrong with TiSP, they go very, very wrong. Let's leave it at that."

As the AP's Rachel Konrad notes, "TiSP is the latest april foolslinks joke at the Mountain View, Calif.-based company, where hijinks pervade cubicles all year long. In blogs, Google employees joke about the recent injection of green dye into milk in the cafeteria, while another talks about zany underlings filling the vice president of engineering's office with sand."

More here from the Motley Fool ... and more here from Slashdot.
