In this article, I'll show you how to prank your friends on April Fool's Day with the very popular Google Voice, a computer to land/mobile calling feature. Basically, Google allows you to play whatever you like through the microphone port on your computer, and play it right through to your victim's phone. Whether it's Rick Astley ("Never Gonna Give You Up") or a text-to-speech application, general hilarity always follows. 

Tools and Materials

To conduct this prank, you'll need: 
  • TRS patch cord (headphone jack patch cable)
  • Gmail account, with the Google Voice plugin installed
  • Small portable audio player (or separate computer)
  • Some numbers to call

Prank Procedure

First, chose a method in which you will conduct the prank. For example, if you decide to just "Rick Roll" your victims, get your method of playback ready (YouTube, iPod, etc.). If you'd rather use a text-to-speech program, then get the text-speech ready. Now, connect the output of your audio device (using the patch cord) to the microphone jack of the computer (in my case, the tower was the audio device, and Google Voice was running on the laptop:

CHIN, ZOMI, MIZO, ZO cih minvai tawh kisai India gam aom ih mipihte kikupna, Debate bawlna hi. Sausimsim in alunglut velvelte bekin atawpdong simzo bekding hi. This is the outcome of the debate about our nomenclatures like Chin-Kuki-Mizo-Zomi on FaceBook – Zolengthe Group. The debate Vaphual shows that every one of us clearly know who we are – We are Zo, but some opined that Kuki nomenclature should be used as it is recognised nationaly and internationally. This is the starting point of the debate: Dear friends, MIZO=ZOMI, then is it something like both side of a coin? If it is so, then there is no chance of sitting under one administrative umbrella.

He further argued that MIZO is a wrong word; ...
