    UNFORTUNATELY – I can’t think about selling my blog, even as an idea for April fool prank. It gives me pain. I can’t see anyone quoting a price for my priceless possession. ( but these are my thoughts, and I am not a extraordinary human being )

    Hey pavan..
    I realize two things, you should consider changing your adsense fonts that will help to look them same…
    and tweak your WP for faster loading.. :)

    Well Harsh, due to some unavoidable factors I was not able to post for April Fool Day. I would call for Guest Post contest and announce “Compete Standard” Subscription for one month.

    I saw way too many of these last April Fool’s Day, and I don’t usually participate in the pranks on my blogs. Some can be fun and creative, other’s can even go viral but in the end it’s false advertising and misinformation. And with people being able to find posts months later, sometimes a former April Fools post can be mistaken for real.
