They fooled half of Wall Street xD They were all making estimates about how much Google would make on this =P
The joke is complicated so it will make people believe it, and slowly realise they have been fooled. Or not. Thats why its good. I would have expected them to be April's Fool jokes though, got tricked by a phone call first thing in the morning as a reminder. Nevertheless they were good, I laughed for quite a while. This kind of thing happened almost everywhere online, there were even jokes pulled off on me in events on games and emails and lots more.
