www.googledollars.com...?

    Or whatever, I'm sure you all get the point. Basically questioning if it's legal or not, because I always had the mentality that 'google' is another word for the highest number with an official word (a google amount of dollars is supposedly a whole number with a hundred zeros), if I'm not mistaken.

    It's practically begging for a cease & desist letter from Google :)

    Also, "Google" is trademarked and it's spelling is not the same as that other word..which is spelled something weird like gogul.

    You can try contacting google to get the permission to use that domain name.

    It actually was sort of a joke, markn26. I'd never attempt to create a website like that! And thanks I thought it was always spelled 'google' as well.

    this domain is a trademark infringement, the owner is risking a "please drop your domain or we will sue you" email from Google..
