Google adds major libraries to its database
When they say they want to make information easily accessable, they sure aren't joking... |

Google, I love you! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
On a completely unrelated note, am I the only one that sees the messages all screwy? |

[img]graemlins/doh.gif[/img] It's pretty obvious though.Type in any two words - but just two, not less, not more - into the Google search engine, and if you get only ONE result, you've got a Googlewhack. Some other rules are: don't use any quotation marks, use only words that are in the dictionary and if your result is just a list of words it doesn't count.
Here are some confirmed Googlewhacks: swaddled flamboyancy beetroots immunologist yellowest lederhosen

Googlewhack is a sport (although I hesitate to call it a sport) in which you do a search for 2 different words and try to result in finding only 1 website. The words must be in the english dictionary and you can not use quote marks. I blame googlewhacking for a large distraction during my high school years
EDIT: But Mel just explains it so much better. [ 12-16-2004, 07:18 AM: Message edited by: shadowhound ]
