Ever purposely mistype a popular domain name to see what you get?

For example, http://www.yourtube.com/

No, because usually they end up being full of malware and risk your security.

I actually avoid that, because then the misspelled URL stays in my history and often comes first alphabetically.

Yeah. I meant to go to amazon.com and inadvertently typed pornstargalactica.com.

I tried anantech.com but I get redirected to frostytech and then avira complains about a virus or something.

I have accidently left off the 'w' in wunderground.com before. Whoops. And years ago, accidently typed huggies.com with b's instead of g's. Whoops. As I recall, that last one involved diapers, but not worn by babies.

Not on purpose, but I mistyped an address once and got a surprise. Had something to do with a particular location famous for its' Politician and my assumption as to what the address was.

FYI, Dicks Sporting Goods is not dicks.com I tried that. My wife was watching and she was like :shocked:


At work I type gogle.com and get a blockpage with:

Reason:
The Websense category "Search Engines and Portals" is filtered.

yet google.com comes up just fine.

One of my sons did that. He was doing a school paper and thought he could find info at whitehouse.com. I told him to put his eyeballs back in his head and try .gov

Seriously.

But I did enjoy sending people to WhiteHouse.com back in the day.
Ultimate lol's for a teenager in the 90's. Nowadays our lol's are more sophisticated, but we got good practice back then.

For example, http://www.yourtube.com/

The guy who made that website, has atleast 100 other online sites that sell worthless ebooks. He makes million each year off of stupid shit like that, no joke. Funny how a stupid landing page and a video can sell.
