Who was an April Fool?

Yesterday's post mentioned that ComputerWeekly was running a few April Fool's stories to celebrate - well you clearly liked them as they all were well read. One reader swallowed the Government rental databse to turn spare rooms into lets story as they mailed in asking for more information.

The others, incase you didn't spot them were: RFID scheme scrapped in favour of implants for infants

and: Golden oldies save corporate's time

There were loads of spoof stories out there in the tech space nicely rounded up by New Scientist, which you can see on the downtime blog.
