GOOGLEWHACKING

If you have never tried Googlewhacking, give it a try:

"This distraction crossed my desk, so I coined a richly meaningful name: Googlewhacking.

Your goal: find [by searching on Google.com] that elusive query (two words - no quote marks) with a single, solitary result!"

1. Googlefactors must exist in this dictionary Dictionary.com. It's so easy to confirm: Google does the work! In the blue bar atop your Google results, accepted terms are linked to dictionary.com, and so appear 'underlined.' No line, no link = Googlejack! (As in, You've got jack! :-)

2. Google also is the arbiter of a whack's uniqueness. Look to the right end of the blue bar atop your Google results. If you see "Results 1 - 1 of (any number),' you found exactly one hit = Googlewhack!

3. Google shows you an excerpt of the page you whacked. Look at that text. If it's merely a list of words, No Whack For You!
