Google Australia's Gday is the latest in the series of Google's April Fool pranks. Claiming to be able to search one day in the future, this new service creates mashups by factoring in recurrence plots, fuzzy measure analysis, online betting odds and iGoogle weather report.

It also employs a statistical extrapolation of PageRank known as SageRank.

All for the good laughs Google. Let us see how many fall for it.

Is there a Turkish Flag on Pakistan's 1000 Currency Note

Red Turkish Flag on the right side. Pakistan's flag color is Green

BBC's Urdu service is reporting that an uproar has errupted in the Pakistani National Assembly when one member pointed out that the newly printed Rupees 1000 currency note actually contains a Turkish flag where a Pakistani flag should appear. There are similarities in the design of the flag but the Pakistani flag is Green and white.
Is this a mistake? How could it have been not noticed before printing? Who approved it and Who should lose his/her job over this blunder?

Exclusive: Google Blog Search Bans Searches on "Musharraf"


Apparently, Google's Blog Search tool does not like when I search for "musharraf". I thought it was a silly server side error and tried it again but I got the same result.
The URL that google generates when you search for "musharraf" on the Blog Search tool is "http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?hl=en&client=news&q=musharraf&ie=UTF8".


Here is what the Google error page says:


We're sorry...
... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now.
We'll restore your access as quickly as possible, so try again soon. In the meantime, if you suspect that your computer or network has been infected, you might want to run a virus checker or spyware remover to make sure that your systems are free of viruses and other spurious software.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on Google.
Seems to me the Google servers have mixed up Musharraf with some kinda spyware or virus, which is not fair even if the Google folks have political thoughts about Musharraf's role in the war against terror.
