Relevant context: https://twitter.com/zofrex/status/1319286955314614275 Apparently the name used to be \"> LTD

Will that even work without http:// or at least // in front of the domain name? Tried it in chrome and sees it as a file name on the current domain.

It had HTTP originally, twitter just munged it.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Now someone just has to register "[NAME AVAILABLE ON REQUEST FROM COMPANIES HOUSE]" as a company name...

Kinda tempted to see if Oregon would let me register [REDACTED], LLC Only 100 dollars... Edit: Someone beat me to it. Reg #1330411-94

[expletive deleted], LLC

On a related topic, the name of the company I work for starts with a colon. The rest of the name is a common adjective. As you can imagine, it is virtually ungooglable at the moment. Any thoughts on how to get around this?

Just change the name. It'll be easier and more cost effective in the long run. I've started working with some software called STACK recently, and it's almost impossible to find anything by searching (go ahead and try!). If it was a commercial product they would be sunk.

At least if it's Haskell's stack build tool, adding the language name to the query makes it pop right up. Not sure if this helps in your case though.

There's a great club in Berlin called "://about blank" So if you're gonna Google it, don't use the URL bar.

My favourite social establishment is The Progress Bar.

Nice spot, but the lines are always so long. Fortunately you always know how long you have to wait.
