Try googling google. Even their "not safe" lol
It could be a joke by a bored software developer. Apparantly google employees do stuff like that from time to time.

They're adding new features, and things are a little messed up in the meantime. If you noticed, there is now a 'promote' button next to each search result. Give them a little time, and I'm sure it'll get sorted out.

You're seriously suggesting we abandon google?
Not only has the internet turned on us, we have turned on it! Show Compassion!

IIRC, promote has been there for a while.

We're all going to die! Thank fuck its googles mess, at first i thought i thought i had a nasy virus/spy/malware. Now I can just sit back and wait for the problem to be fixed, or watch the world slowly implode. Hooray for Yahtzee's page being bookmarked which lead me to this thread.

My parents f***ing freaked when they got this, started saying they might have to buy a new computer cuz the Internet is broken. Although I would welcome a new comp, I had to explain that it was only Google that had a few minor problems.

Apparently for a time, if you Googled:

'Famous French military victories'

it would return

"Did you mean 'Famous French military defeats'?".

You search it and then you just copy the URL. There you go www.christianrock.net

Edit: I tried making the thing but it doesn't work.

It seems paying attention to Fallout 3's guide book may prove to be worthwhile after all. Dibs on power armour and a minigun when the apocolypse happens.

Can someone please head to the googlplex and power cycle the servers, I know there are quite a few but it may sort this out.

At least it's fixed now. Let's see what was the problem.

Edit: Argh it doesn't work entirely.
