ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH TECHNOLOGY (FANS OF SPELLCHECK MIGHT NOT GET THIS)

ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH TECHNOLOGY (FANS OF SPELLCHECK MIGHT NOT GET THIS)

The spouse recently forwarded this to me, as collected by Laura Ann Gilman, who, like my spouse, posts on Livejournal.com (as suricattus).

People spend a lot of time thinking up their children's names. It's just a pity they don't always think as hard about their domain names.

Firstly there is Who Represents?, a database for agencies to the rich and famous:
http://www.whorepresents.com

Second is the Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views:
http://www.expertsexchange.com

Looking for a pen? Look no further than Pen Island:
http://www.penisland.net

Need a therapist? Try:
http://www.therapistfinder.com

And there is an Italian Power company:
http://www.powergenitalia.com

Finally we have the Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales:

Brings me back to college and the case study of the Chevrolet they couldn't sell in Spanish-speaking countries: the Nova.
