Google Owns 2,430 Domains?
As the topic might say it all...I just tried the site : www.gewgle.com and my browser redirected me to the WHOIS site...and I out there read that Google had 2,430 DOmains:wow: :faint: :bowdown: :jumpy:

Some of them are :

www.gewgle.com

www.ggoogle.com

www.googil.com

And stuff like that! So they bought the domains just for correcting a visitor's typing error like typing ggoogle instead of google :s

That rocks!

let me know if this is true and please do post your comments on it!

Yea, but can you explain why www.googlesux.com redirects to the Boston RedSox web page?

Lol...I am really not sure...

The thingy that I got regarding domains was due to an intented mistype in my URL... So really not sure why googlesux.com doesn't redirect ...

And probably why would google own a domain which would insult it's company itself
