    Silver Surfer Typo = FAIL !!!

    I was doing a bit of voluntary work today ( on my day off ) and was helping out run a silver surfers IT club.

    One of the gentlemen asked about powerline / homeplug solutions as his grandson had recommended it as his old house has very thick walls and his wireless signal wasn't reaching very far.

    He wasn't really sure what it was all about, so I explained what it entailed and how it worked and then suggested he Google 'homeplug' to look at some websites.....

    Unfortunately, he typed 'homo plug' into the mighty Google as an image search term and all of a sudden we were in a completely different world....

    ....the little old lady on the next computer nearly had a heart attack and I made a mental note to recommend to the center's IT guy that he introduce some sort of filtering asap and that Google SafeSearch be set to Strict always ....!

    WARNING - DON'T DO THIS SEARCH AT WORK - SOME OF THE IMAGES ARE DEFINITELY NSFW!!!!!!!!!

    That's brilliant.

    If he'd stuck it in without spaces, he'd actually have found what he was looking for.
    But with spaces..... Hmmm. Yessssss. I seeeeeeee.
