a fun project for the whole family

1. Open up an internet browser window and go to www.google.com.

2. Type the word "failure" into the search field.

3. Select "I'm Feeling Lucky".

4. Laugh hysterically at the astute observation made by the folks at Google.


*Many thanks to LC for pointing out this phenomenon.

While that is very funny, it likely doesn't have anything to do with the folks at Google. The I'm Feeling Lucky button just takes you directly to the first hit. Because Google ranks its results (in part) by how many sites are linking to a particular page, it's possible to start a movement that generates a lot of links to one site for one keyword. It's a phenomenon known as "Google bombing."

But yes, very funny.
