I remember the time where they were using April 1st to release real products... Like Gmail.

I'm wondering if they could genuinely pull one impossible-to-believe-btu-real service each year for an April 1 launch date?

The only one I remember was Gmail and it was brilliant. It was something like 2GB of storage which at the time was mind-boggling. And they added the cool ticker which continuously added even more storage.
Lots of us really believed it was a 4/1 joke.

Well, it seems like this is doubling as a promo for "Inbox", which I hadn't heard of before today. It seems similar to unroll.me.
