Check out this list of the ten worst domain names of all time:

http://independentsources.com/2006/07/12/worst-company-urls

From the site:

Attn: Entrepeneurs
Everyone knows that if you are going to operate a business in today’s world you need a domain name. It is advisable to look at the domain name selected as other see it and not just as you think it looks. Failure to do this may result in situations such as the following (legitimate) companies who deal in everyday humdrum products and services but clearly didn’t give their domain names enough consideration:

1. A site called ‘Who Represents‘ where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity. Their domain name… wait for it… is
www.whorepresents.com

2. Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views at
www.expertsexchange.com

3. Looking for a pen? Look no further than Pen Island at
www.penisland.net

4. Need a therapist? Try Therapist Finder at
www.therapistfinder.com

5. Then of course, there’s the Italian Power Generator company…
www.powergenitalia.com

6. And now, we have the Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales:
www.molestationnursery.com

7. If you’re looking for computer software, there’s always
www.ipanywhere.com

8. Welcome to the First Cumming Methodist Church. Their website is
www.cummingfirst.com

9. Then, of course, there’s these brainless art designers, and their whacky website:
www.speedofart.com

10. Want to holiday in Lake Tahoe? Try their brochure website at
www.gotahoe.com

Heh, clicked on the wrong icon and moved it myself before I even saw your post.

Or, to put it another way:

:P

Heh, I love this thread. Pen Island puts "pen" and "is" dangerously close in their motto.



That's really from their website. Ha!!

Don't these people realize what they've done?

Those are hilarious.

www.speedofart.com is probably the stupidest website ever. What moron makes all the text on the index page blink so you can barely read it? Like it needs to blink to make me realize it's there?

I would bet quite a bit that SOMEBODY behind Pen Island knew what they were doing.

The more I think about it, maybe it's an intentional way to try to implant the name in one's memory.

I sure as hell don't know any other websites off the top of my head where you can order a custom-made pen.
