Dreadful Nonsense

"I've read your blog. it's really funny. you should write a column." - Jon Ronson

And, to end the day at work, a silly bit of mucking about with a famous search engine.

A quick search through my tracker revealed a lovely example of Google Monkeybombing. Someone realised that the phrase Galactic Toss Monkeys had previously returned 0 answers on Google when searched. Someone claims it now returns 195, but really, if you do a search with Galactic Toss Monkeys in inverted commas, you'll only get 8. Although this entry should make it nine. This has been achieved by using the phrase Galactic Toss Monkeys as much as possible. I might say it again for luck.
