Oh dear, that's hilarious. The question is, does this actually have any benefit? I'm sure it's been discussed before (and my thinking is that it doesn't?), but surely it must have some benefit if these knobs keep at it?

Potentially some benefit in MSN.

Wait 5 years. You won't be able to get a name *not* like that.

Damn the saturation of the internet.

What!!!

I can't belive it. Dont' go to that site! I just did an I made a big mistake doing it. I now have to purchase a new keyboard as I have just worn away all of my keys .

Well there is to many words in it. But actually I have seen a longer one than that, but can't quite remember.

These type of sites may slightly work for SEO or not, but for long term effect you can run something like a yahoo or google site using a domain like that so you know that they will not get big unless they change their domain name in the process.
