Alas, I didn't have the chance to search out nearly as many easter eggs this year, but some of these may still be findable. Google had two gags this year that I noticed - Google Nose (which if that link is dead was just what it sounds like. :) ), and Treasure Map in Google Maps.
Glenn Glazer mentioned an entry by EFF via Facebook which probably IS still there, including stuff like the following:
My thanks to Wayne Joseph Borean for this one:
MPAA Chairman Former Senator Chris Dodd Joins Pirate Party, Announces 2016 Presidential Bid
And doubtless blows a gasket when he finds out he's been April spoofed. Ah well..

FBI Issues Reflection Warnings
Starting this week, department stores will begin affixing "FBI Anti-Piracy" stickers to mirrors, warning consumers that placing a reflective object in the same room as a television could constitute a violation of U.S. copyright law. In a related lawsuit, EFF is representing Dana Auerbach, a ballet instructor who was caught watching The Black Swan in her dance studio while on lunch break. She faces a $750 to $150,000 penalty for each of her infinite charges of infringement.
