The Game Blog on April Fooling

Rob Walker's simply-titled Game Blog has posted an editorial about the question of how gaming sites should handle April Fool's day. He talks to editors at some of the bigger gaming Web sites and gets pretty much the same reaction from each: that there's nothing wrong with a little joking around on April 1. Slashdot Games' Michael Zenke added that the jokes should clearly be farce, and should be quickly updated on April 2 to let people in on the joke, which I feel is all that's necessary to keep your jokes from going too far.
