Googlewhacking

Googlewhacking is the act of trying to find two or more words which, when entered as a Google search only produce a single search result.
This is known as a Googlewhack.
Words (or Googlefactors) must exist on dictionary.com in order to count, but this is easy to check, since Google underlines words at the top of the results page when it finds them in the dictionary, something like this:

Searched the web for squirrel.

Results 1 - 10 of about 614,000. Search took 0.09 seconds.

Another rule is that it doesn't count if the page found is just a big list of words

Googlewhacks are scored by searching for the words alone, and multiplying together the number of search results that each individual word had. High scores indicate common words that only occur together once, whereas low scores indicate rare words used together, which are probably more of a challenge to find.

The irony is, of course, that once google indexes this page, then all the whacks I have discovered will become invalidated (unless you put in "-googlewhack" into the search terms). This does mean, however, that once someone has "claimed" a whack, you know that nobody else can, since it will nolonger show up as a single link.
