For those who read the works of Dave Gorman, this will be plainly obvious, for those who don't, you will probably be confused.
A googlewhack is two words typed into www.google.com, which find only one result.
However, there are 3 conditions.
1) The words must both be found in www.Dictionary.com (if you look to the right, the words will either be underlined, or not. If they are, it means they are in the dictionary, if not...they're not)
2) They cannot be on a website which is just a list of words.
And finally
3) The words cannot be in inverted commas, as this narrows the search too much.

Oh, I found one a little earlier, Workaround Drongos

Go on, find your own.

Thats cool. The words already found won't give only one result anymore, being listed at several places :).

Well, if I search for ambidextrous scallywags listed on www.googlewhacks.com, I get www.googlewhacks.com as the top result.

ok... that never used to happen, i suppose once it goes off that page and into the archives it works, cos i registered the first 2 that i found, and they stayed as 1, untill another page was made about them. But that could have been my browser cacheing the search pages.

There are pages about them, I found a page that has all the googlewhacks, and some interview with DG himself had a couple in it.

This is harder than I thought!

Even the longest words in the dictionary like antidisestablishmentarianism pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

get 600 results. Then again, probably because they are the longest.

Anyone wanna post some examples?
