EMBARRASSING DOMAIN NAMES It turns out that PowerGen has nothing
to do with the site I mentioned last week, www.powergenitalia.com,
which has actually been set up by an Italian firm - presumably one
with poor English - that charges batteries. Douglas Yates provided
two other nice examples, one being http://www.classicalbums.co.uk/,
but his favourite is a company that sells mobile phone ring tones
based on hit tunes, http://www.ringtoneshits.com/.
