In case you missed them, here’s some of today’s April Fool’s tricks

It’s the day of the year when everyone turns into a comedian, and the media go all out to fool you. Here’s some of the best April Fool's tricks we spotted today.

April Fool’s Day is one long day of doubting the news. If you see anything today, think twice before believing it as a healthy scepticism will save you some embarrassment later.

But a quick scan of the news today popped up some cracking stories. RTE.ie decided to torture the very young and feeble minded by announcing that boy band One Direction had split up. We can only imagine the weeping that would have caused throughout the nation, and rejoicing in some parts too, but sadly, it’s not true.

Meanwhile our friends at USIT announced that they were now taking applications for Moon visas, the Donegal Democrat are claiming that a man from Letterkenny has won a share of the massive €640million Lotto in the US and the Sunday World are claiming that Bertie Ahern is to leave Ireland. We’re pretty sure two out of three of those are jokes anyway.

The BBC, or more likely someone with some photoshop skills, went for a big one.

Also across the water the Guardian are claiming that former Happy Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder will become an advisor to Prime Minister David Cameron and the Daily Star reckon that Spurs will only ground share with Arsenal while White Hart Lane is being redeveloped if a giant cockerel is erected outside the Emirates. Indeed.

We also found a story about an invisible t-shirt on the Huffington Post, with the video above while we loved this Ikea ad we found.

But the best work, once again is Google. We wrote about their 8-bit Google Maps trick earlier today so check it out.
