A Google Blacklist Christmas

Tuesday, December 21st, 2010



Every year we try and do something nice for Christmas. Last year we produced the Newspaper, so this year we wanted to create something we were equally proud of. Earlier in the year it came to light that Google instant-search was blacklisting certain words and phrases, so as you type them in (or at least start to) they produce zero results. We’d had an idea on the back-burner for a little while about using these words for something, so when Christmas rolled around and being no strangers to rude words we though we’d produce ‘The Google Blacklist Christmas Card’.

The site allows you to scroll quickly through the blacklisted words to create a holiday message for your nearest and dearest. Enjoy! (obviously not safe for some workplaces due to some very rude words)
