Google Take Down

The objective:

To see what would happen if everybody in the world simultaneously searches for a given phrase on Google.

How:

Go onto http://www.google.com at the appointed date and time and search for the given term.

When:

Thursday, 20th May 2010, at exactly 5pm GMT (12 noon EST, 9am PST)

What:

Search for "google spooge monkey" (make sure you use the quotes)

Why that phrase:

Because it doesn't bring back any results. google is prepared for searches that bring back large numbers of results. Also we would like to see a google trend spike for this phrase.

Is this promotional or advertising:

No, this is in no way promotional or advertising. This is pure research.
