Wierd stuff file

Ok put your mouse over the following link and notice where it says it goes in the bottom of your browser.


http://∕google.com

Now quote this message and look at the actual url i put there.

Now copy and paste the url above into your address bar and see where it takes you.

can you hit me up on icq please

so if you add a forwardslash to the google url it doesn't take you to the home page? I don't think that's weird.

I don't get it?

it's not a typical forward slash

where does it take you ?

I get an error when i click it.
WG

what kind of error..

for me it leads to an unregistered domain http://xn--google-oe3c.com/

http://∕google dot com

Its an international Domian Name:
International Domain Names (IDN), are web addresses that are displayed in non-ASCII character sets or alphabets in the Internet Explorer Address bar. This allows websites to display their address using their native language and character set.

opera:illegal-url-75.

Why should I be impressed ?

I landed here -- http://www.xn--google-oe3c.com/

weird!

notice though that characters appear before and after the domain

notice that using this url

http://yahoo∕.com the characters are displayed differently

If you visit the URL in IE7 you see a brand new little button has appeared atr the end of the url window... click it and it explains...

This button NEVER usually appears... Hmmmm
