Googlewhacking

[Brian Ellis]

Apparently not new, but I've just come across it at:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/arts/news/story/0,11711,1072073,00.html

I tried it for a few minutes and found it quite difficult - easy to get zero or very multiple results with just 2 words, but finally googlewhacked " chikan passerine"

Superflux shrubbery, Parhelia speedwagon (2 identicals), Sharpton superfunk.

Only superflux shrubbery counts, the others don't show up as english words (Example where it says "Searched the web for Parhelia speedwagon", parhelia is linkified, but speedwagon is not).
