Funny Site of the Day -- During and after the big day o' fools, TechCrunch's crack team scoured the Web to assess and share the more noteworthy tricks and hoaxes.

Startup Zurb has launched the Sharpiener, which is a sharpener for your Sharpie markers, in case they go dull.

Shipwire launches “Second Day Before Yesterday,” your packages will ship before you ordered them.
