This distraction crossed my desk, so I coined a richly meaningful name: Googlewhacking.
Your goal: find that elusive query (two words - no quote marks) with a single, solitary result! 2002-01-08: See how the Googlewhack craze began, or record your own Whack... 2003-10-06: Thanks to Googlewhackers for discovering the GoogleNACK misbehavior... 2004-01-26: Starting on our second anniversary, we tracked Googlewhack in the news... 2005-02-25: The multifariou, mysteriou Crise in Suffixe Esslessness... |

Enron ran a real runaround.
The search for 'The One' may also describe activities at Enron - find "The One" person to blame for many misdeeds! (Hmmm... would the scapegoat get an Enronwhack, or be an Enronwhack? :-) Googlewhacking is about having fun with words and search, so political commentary can't be far behind! Here are a few recent pure whacks (exactly one result) along with our signature obvious question to enhance the pleasure. Thanks to every hack, who contributed a whack, so we could find the obvious FAQ. Enjoy! 2005-01-05 Please note: These whacks were compromised nearly three years ago! Constant changes to the web and to Google's index eventually compromise nearly every Googlewhack. These died a rapid death after reports by CNN, Reuters, BBC, and many other news sources. For fresh whacks, up-to-the-minute, see The Whack Stack. Enjoy! |
