Google Inc. enjoyed their annual April Fool's Day joke, but this year they used potty-humor. Google Posted a link on their home page that lead to a site offering consumers free high-speed wireless Internet through their home's plumbing system.
The prank was named "Dark Porcelain" and Google's Toilet Internet Service Provider (TiSP) is said to work with Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system. Septic tanks however are incompatible with the system's service requirements.
Google even included a prank press release that quoted Google's co-founder Larry Page and providing a step-by-step instructions for installation of the new system, and even a Frequently Asked Questions section. Marissa Mayer, a Google vice president, called TiSP a "breakthrough product, particularly for those users who, like Larry himself, do much of their best thinking in the bathroom."
