Google game
 
Search for two terms that will yield the fewest results.

The lowest I was able to get after about 20 tries was 940 using seesaw algea
Quote:

Results 1 - 10 of about 940 for seesaw algea. (0.34 seconds)
seesaw algea - Google Search

I'm pretty sure that can be beat.

Get it on!

EDIT: Should we be placing terms within quotation marks, or is that too hardcore?

I don't think I get this. Two terms as in, do they both need to be found in an ordinary dictionary, or not?

This is my entry:

crompsin egomaniacal - Google Search

Quote:

Results 1 - 2 of 2 for crompsin egomaniacal. (0.35 seconds)
That number may raise to 3 results within a few days.

What do I win?

Yes, each of the search terms should be found in the dictionary.

No. That would create some impossible combinations and become to easy.

Alright, with these new revelations, I'll try it again:

contumacious Ouranophobia - Google Search

Results 1 - 2 of 2 for contumacious Ouranophobia. (0.23 seconds)

another thing to note: both of the terms that my particular search query resulted in are not even actual websites. One of them is .txt document, and the other result seems to be some sort of list containing every real word combination possible.

This is called a Googlewhack. Googlewhacking: The Search for The One True Googlewhack

levite 01-24-2010 04:42 PM

1st try: 3 results. Search words: triskadekaphobic liger

2nd try: 2 results. Search words: unreconconstructed onomatopoeist

Can't seem to get fewer results than that off the top of my head....
