No Google hasn't been hacked or nothing crazy like that. Just go to Google and search "Failure" and see what's at the top of the list. Too funny.

that's a good one.
the explanation in the side bar makes it even funnier to me - don't know why, it just does.

I think the google machine has AI and is now ALIVE. Smart computer, that one.

PS Yeah, I read the sidebar explanation. I think it's ironic.

try
"french military victories"

but its only fun if you click the "i'm feeling lucky" button which automatically takes you to the 1st page

see wikipedia on googlebombing for more examples and an explanation

the best one was "weapons of mass destruction" but it doesnt work any more. Used to take you to THIS page

Think I'll try to Google bomb my site. ;)

Yes. Google bombing is definitely a valuable use of time. I put in the term "wanker" in 'Feeling Lucky' and got an entertaining reward for my idiocy
: )

Wanker is profane slang for a contemptible person, meaning literally one who wanks (masturbates). In Britain it is particularly used of someone (usually male) who is a self-obsessed show-off.
