I thought its pretty hilarious. First I was worried I've been hacked (or SO has been hacked) then I realized they must start early with their April fool stuff. Liked the guestbook at the bottom!

Nostalgia FTW!

Thanks for the nostalgia hit folks. The Internet in the late 90's was truly awesome - Geocities, flaming text, marquees, Neopets and all.

Maybe I'm a joy-kill, but, I really find the April Fool's tradition of ruining the internet for one day every year pretty unfortunate.

Well, at least for one day a year they are honest about it.

There's a highlighted "turn this stuff off" button in the header.

It’s one of the things that drove me from slashdot, years ago.

Then you must really hate the FCC for ruining the internet every day.

Oh wow. Right down to the stars dropping off the mouse. I thought I died and went to Web 1.0

It's currently 4:25am on April 1st in NZ and 2:25am in Sydney. I'd say they timed it to start pretty well.
