April Fools’ Day can be dangerous professionally to people like journalists and stockbrokers who trade in facts. It is a day when the Internet, already rife with rumor, becomes an even more fertile breeding ground for hoaxes. Many have become so wary of tricks that they just want to take a break from social media until it’s over. In 2013, The Times did a roundup of big companies and their jokes. No, Sony did not launch a line of electronics for pets. And there is no such thing as Vimeow, a Vimeo service dedicated to cat videos.Source: Beware of April Fools’ Day - The New York Times
