    It's not "Google It", it's "Go Ogle IT"!


    This made me laugh.

    No, it's not the name only, it's the web-site.

    I wonder how many people tried to register "The Google" after W. talked about it.
    BackAlley.com Backhole.com BlackAfricans.com BrownWomen.com Breathers.com & More!
    If you have to explain what your domain name means, give up, it's a crappy name!

    Just because an infringement is really clever doesn't change the fact that it is an infringement.

    True but other than the name, there really isn't any TM issue here.

    The owner doesn't have anything on the site pertaining to Google (not even adsense) and "Go Ogle IT" does make sense

    Definition of ogle:
    1. to look at amorously, flirtatiously, or impertinently.
    2. to eye; look or stare at.
    –verb (used without object)
    3. to look amorously, flirtatiously, or impertinently.
    4. to look or stare.
    –noun
    5. an amorous, flirtatious, or impertinent glance or stare.

    I wonder how many doors will be opened from this?

    Go Ogle Maps
    Go Ogle Homes

    An infringement needs to be proven in court. A web-site is good intention.

    My dense mistake. Now that I look at it again, I can see that it was an attempt at humor that flew over my head.

    However, given some of the gross misinformation about TM law I see on these boards, I can be excused for some of the density, no? Half a mulligan?
