CoH: Golden age has to be my fave of those three.  Reminds me of my infocom days too.

Here's a bunch that the Museum of hoaxes has been tracking.

My favorite--free range Turtle Wax.

cat: link?

Googles: that's hillarious. Who knew Trent had such a twisted sense of humor.

Oh man that's too funny, but now I'm kinda depressed because I really wish it was real.

GG, maybe Cat is referring to http://www.freerangeturtles.com/.

BTW, a favorite from the Museum of Hoaxes' list is

Gmail Autopilot

Google unveiled Gmail Autopilot, a feature that automatically reads and responds to your email, saving you the time of doing this. It boasted that Autopilot could mirror any communication style, could also work for Gmail chat, and would work even if both sender and recipient had Autopilot on:

Two Gmail accounts can happily converse with each other for up to three messages each. Beyond that, our experiments have shown a significant decline in the quality ranking of Autopilot's responses and further messages may commit you to dinner parties or baby namings in which you have no interest.

And, from the spoof FAQ on google's site

How does Gmail mirror my communication style?

The more Gmail messages Autopilot can sample, the better. With fewer than 100 messages, there may not be enough data to calibrate Autopilot effectively. You can adjust tone, typo propensity, and preferred punctuation from the Autopilot tab under Settings.

You may want to log in every week or so to ensure Autopilot is calibrated optimally.

Agreed!  I nearly lost my lunch laughing.

Yeah, I meant to post that link, had it in my clipboard, and forgot.  Stumpy's MoH link is correct, as is his Free Range Turtle Wax link.
