2) Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views

Gotta love those. I think www.expertsexchange.com takes the cake though.



Oddly enough, I just went to it and it appears to no longer be online.. Did they change their name?

This is hilarious, even if these people didn't do this intentionally.

Looks like they've started using the hyphenated version.. [EDIT]Yes, they did use the unhyphenated version, but switched after they realized.. . Same goes for powergenitalia.com - they've changed their name :-D[/EDIT]

Surely the owner of the site would have realized the backlink traffic of the original domain though.. It's a shame he let it drop instead of keeping as a redirect..

That is my favorite too.

Can I share a real life example?

No joke, I wanted to name my business that would specialize in quickly creating logos and other branding graphics.

Unfortunetly I chose: brandsexpress.com
:doh:
