INTRODUCING "SLURLS" . . . INTERNET URL ADDRESSES THAT ARE UNINTENTIONALLY OFFENSIVE AND AMUSING:

A few years ago, a guy named Andy Geldman coined the term "Slurl."  It refers to an Internet URL that's unintentionally outrageous, offensive or amusing.

Now Andy's released a book collecting the funniest "slurls" from around the web.  It's called "Slurls:  They Called Their Website WHAT?!".  Here are ten of the best "slurls" mentioned in the book:

EffOff.com is the website for a company in Cincinnati called Effective Office Environment.  (--Link to it here:  http://effoff.com/)

ExpertSexChange.com used to be a website where IT professionals could exchange advice.  It's since been changed to Experts-Exchange.com.  (--Link to it here: http://www.experts-exchange.com/)
