More Publicity

Our web address has also brought us a mention in New Scientist:

MISREMEMBER or mistype the name of a popular but innocuous website, and you can find yourself somewhere entirely different. Often it's somewhere not nearly as innocuous, because pornographers have taken to picking up popular typos for their Web addresses.

Other times it's just, well, ever so slightly different. Boston politicians who are trying to lure the Democratic Party to have its 2004 presidential nominating convention in their city have opened a website at www.boston04.com. But try www.boston2004.com and you will find something completely different--the website for the 62nd World Science Fiction Convention, whose guests of honour include Terry Pratchett. That one sounds like much more fun.
