Geeky Prank Sites to Fool Your Friends

As a prankster, you must always be looking for new, innovative ways to fool your friends. With the internet being such a vast space, the possibilities are endless when it comes to geeky prank sites that can help you achieve this.
Here are a few geeky prank sites that can be used to mess with your friends:

1. Geek Typer

If you ever watched a film that depicts someone typing furiously on a computer screen as if they are hacking into something high-security, you can now live that experience. Geek Typer is a prank site that simulates typing complex coding on your device. Your friends can be quickly tricked into believing you are hacking into something when, in fact, you’re typing absolute gibberish.

2. Fake Update

Fake Update is the next level prank site that will make your friends think their computer is under attack. This site imitates the scary “update” screen of the Windows operating system that can freeze a screen entirely. After some time, your friend will realize that the “update” screen is fake and that you have just caused a minor panic within them.

3. Hacker Typer

Hacker Typer is another prank site that lets you simulate coding on your screen, but with a more realistic twist than Geek Typer. This site makes your typing look like you’re hacking into classified information, with green text cascading down the screen. If you have a tech-savvy friend who thinks they can snoop around your screen, this site is perfect for you.

4. The Useless Web

If you’re looking for a simple and subtle way to prank someone, The Useless Web is the way to go. The site takes you to random websites that don’t do anything except waste time. You can send the link to your friend with a note saying it leads to a valuable piece of information or a must-see-video. The Useless Web will leave them bemused, and you’ll have a laugh at their expense.

5. Fake Windows Update

Similar to Fake Update, Fake Windows Update can be used to mess with your friend’s computer. This site creates an update window with endless progress bars, making your friend think their computer is updating for hours. You’ll need to have access to their computer to use this prank.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
