I don't know the answer - I always use "yahoo". OK, I confess, I do use yahoo for a quick glimpse at the day's news headlines. On the systems I use regularly, I have a bookmark in my toolbar. On other systems, where I don't take the time to customize the system, I tend to use google (the homepage on every system I use) , finding it faster to click HOME and feel lucky with "yahoo" than type yahoo.com in the url bar.
Expressed more generally, for a given site, what is the shortest string which, if entered into the google search box, will return that site #1? Eg, What is the shortest string that will get you to http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent if you are feeling lucky? I'll wager you can't beat "bit". [Congrats Bram - being #1 on google for "bit" is no small achievement!]
What is the shortest string that will take you to google.com, to slashdot.com?

Mr. McKittrick, after very careful consideration, sir, I've come to the conclusion that your new defense system sucks.
