  1. [...] of going to Ad:Tech when you use this code (BRSFRV). I promise that you won’t get Rick Rolled or Janrolled or see some flash message that says “gotcha!” Instead, you will get to attend a great [...]

  2. Are you wearing a shoemoney shirt? It def is April first. By the way, is it still getting rick rolled if you like the song?

  3. Great vid, Jangro. Love the “eBates China” diss.

  4. oh, and BigIdea is real (as real can be in the marketing world). Launching on April 1 is the new hotness.

  5. Nice work, Mr. Jangro. I just wish you would have given us more Rick Astley (full disclosure, I bought his cassette back in the day) and less of the hell cat.

  6. Nice catch, Jim. Thanks for noticing!

  7. Glad to hear it. congrats (again)!

  8. Is that true about 30″ HD display? Bigger not batter that is?

    My mind is set on Mac Pro… But I am not sure if I really need a 30″ display.

  9. Yes that was my reaction to the price tag on 30″er…. yikes!!!

    One more thing. How did you managed to include trackbacks in your template?

  10. Haha… lolzing everywhere.

  11. I thought April first would be a good day to release news on an affiliate program… apparently not.

  12. I thought my fools prank was a pretty good one

  13. Nice, kyle. a totally backward webpage is really strange to look at.

  18. [...] out of sync, …(Scott Jangro has a funny video on April Fool jokes and includes some of my own history around jokes). You see why I had to publish something after the day of joking around. I also liked Jen [...]

  19. How you deliver all that with a straight face is beyond me….

  20. “Microsoft Xbox 360 Spring Announcements” almost caught me ! These days in april fools many websites play with serious news… Like liteon internal blu ray drive for xbox360! April fools days in the internet are less funny every year.

  21. LOL, I got rickrolled WAY too many times on April Fools.

  22. My first impression was you was also trying to april fool us with this video. Enjoyed it. Thanks. And I have actually managed to fool a quite a few people without being fooled. He He He.

  23. Well, after about two months, it finally seems like the Rickrolling craze is over. Much like Rick Astley's career.

  24. [...] does his Daily Flip, Sam Harrelson does great how-to’s- see this one on the Amazon Kindle, Scott Jangro (from the days of the Jangro Cam) manages to Vlog…practically everyone I know does video. [...]
