"Googlewhacking" might sound like an arcade game or a dirty phrase, but it’s actually a somewhat brainy, albeit bizarre, enterprise. Fans of the pastime enter oddball two-word phrases—like "unicycle beansprout" and "lunchmeat supercollider"—into Google and claim victory when they hit a term for which the search engine can locate only one matching Web site.
A healthy subculture has sprouted around the game, as evidenced by the roll call of successful Googlewhacks on a Web site known as The Whack Stack.
