Google Gnome is an April Fool's joke, but it's no laughing matter

Seriously — it's a bummer that something like this doesn't actually exist!

Happy April Fool's day! Even if you're not into it, at least there are some entertaining videos coming out of it. This one is from Google and it introduces a product called Google Gnome.

I don't understand why this Google Gnome isn't a real thing I can pay money for. I would love to be able to automate my backyard. We have a garden. We grow our own vegetables! I'd love to be able to ask Google Gnome how my potatoes are doing.

I'm not laughing because I'm devastated that this isn't real.
