I tend not to do this, cause you never know where it could lead...

For example, I don't know if this is still the case, but "whitehouse" followed by ".com" (instead of ".gov") led to a porn site.

My US history teacher discovered that fun fact when trying to help a student with research. o_O

Yes, I too think that there is a certain risk in doing this. Some basic precautions would be:

1. Don't do it if you are too young or with a delicate sensibility that is easily offended.

2. Don't do it on a public computer, like the ones at your workplace.

3. Don't do it with your eight year old hovering close by.

Matt, I hope you had a camera handy and took a picture of your history teacher's face when that incident happened. :)
 
I was trying names from Greek and Roman mythology. Interesting thing is that the first few names I tried all belong to technology companies:

www.zeus.com
www.jupiter.com
www.juno.com
www.apollo.com
www.athena.com
www.cerberus.com

www.hera.com was the exception--a German company that makes paper products. Another exception was www.achilles.com.

From Hindu mythology, the first three names I hit were tech companies too:

www.shiva.com
www.indra.com
www.agni.com


Edit: I just realized that I just now spammed this board. I feel dirty.

As long as people don't profit or gain in any way by posting links I don't see a problem. The problem is when people are shamelessly advertising.

It's an exercise in exploring and creative thought. It's so easy to search for something you think you want and find web sites. How is one to learn that which they don't know to search for?

Anyone know all the norse gods off hand?
 
I don't see a problem even if ppl are profiting from posting links onto this sight just as long as its for the good of all us and its not spamming the sight. The problem is most of the time ppl who are trying to make a profit by advertising stuff do end up spamming. This is one thing we here have not had to deal with up to yet :) Just them dame trolls that stopped us from letting guests post. That still niggles at me. Just as long as any link is for the good of us members of a lonely life then it should never be a problem.
 
No one here uses Stumbleupon? (An addon for Firefox)

You click a button and go to random sites. It's extremely addicting ^^
