...and would like to offer my services to the googleinquisition in rounding up others to work in their off world googlemines.

IIRC, a certain L Ron Hubfraud mentioned starting a new religion as the easiest way to make a fortune. The amazing thing is that he was right...

(Paris, as she knows the second easiest way)

Coming soon? Bah! Came already!

Alert

The Church of Google already exists: http://www.thechurchofgoogle.org/

Do some googling before posting, no?

Registering?

Can't seem to get registered at Googleoverlords.com saying missing Google Overlord ID number? keeps redirecting to GooglePeon.com.

In the beginning there was was Google and the search was good. I'm considering converting from Pastafarian. I like new shiny golden calfs!

The penguin because I hope this new religion is open source.

Soul Searching?

I suspect that they've got bored of providing search queries and are planning to instead provide every possible sector of the internet themselves.

How long before all newborn children have the google suffix in front of their names and are fully search query complient. "Hi I'm Google.Peter, what would you like to know about me officer?"

Well, other religions have propounded "do nothing evil" in their time, too.

Do you need an asistant? You seem to spend most of your work time scanning WHOIS and news sites for funny stuff. I do that at work for free (Although my boss would be very upset if he knew). I would love to be paid for it :-)

But why not...

Googleoverlords.com?

It would seem logical, particular as overlords.com is already in use...

I'm afraid the new religion is "Religion as a Service", so they can change the holy books but they dont need to share their work.

Google Porn Beta

What an excellent idea! Finally they can launch AdSense Adult Edition and start making some bucks off all that porn traffic they generate :-)

gmailsucks.com, frooglesucks.com and googlesucks.com 

Posted Thursday 24th April 2008 13:14 GMT

Going off on a tangent, can anyone explain why we don't see (for example) gmail.sucks.com or gmail.sucks.org? Surely there's money in it.

That's not domination. 

Posted Thursday 24th April 2008 14:41 GMT

Having a ".gog" TLD. That would be domination.

Incidently, if they've taken:

goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogle.com

are:

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogle.com

and:

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogle.com

available?

Just got an e-mail from www.beontopranking-google.com, a rather dodgy-seeming link directory.

And, shouldn't it be: goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogle

or

g0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000gle

both of which are available (or seem to be)

What about Google's exchange?

Anyone want to keep an eye on it and see if they renew? :o)

Paris Hilton

http://www.googlesux.com/ is up and running (and NOT owned by google, from what I can see). They need a couple lessons in SMS speech probably.

Also, I'd bet my shirt that they didn't register googleisapileofshitwhichcouldn'tfinditsownmotherinabrothel.com, though it's barely longer than goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooogle.com

Mine's the one which reads "'Paris Hilton' hot site:hotnudesexyceleb.sex.com" on the back

Lester, this is your next mission

Should you accept it, of course. We need a survey on how the members of the w3 consortium (list here: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Member/List) comply to the w3 "standards". I tested MS already, no surprise: the w3 checker found 26 errors on www.microsoft.com. We need you to investigate the other members' pages. (of course, you can dig further in MS website, just for fun. The Office page contains 55 errors).

If you were to be caught, etc....

Have fun!

I was surprised they hadn't registered either of "goggle.com" or "goggles.com", which I would have imagined would be where a lot of mis-spellers end up. They do have googel.com though.

I wonder if they have registered the "org" sites too: there is "google-watch.org" and "scroogle.org", both anti-google sites.
