Yah, a not totally useless meme. Picking up after Visa Kopu, and initially from defectiveyeti.
What is the URL your browser gives you for each letter (and number):
- A: amazon.co.uk. Was persistently looking for something or the other several times this week.
- B: blogilista.fi/suosikit.php. Well well, what have we here.
- C: cnn.com. Spookily topical.
- D: www.dvdcompare.net. For those anguishing moments of deciding between a bargain price and a full set of features.
- E: www.wikipedia.org. The choice of the digital generation.
- F: www.fimoculous.com. Newly
discovered blog. Uncomfortable three-column layout, but decent content. - G: www.google.com. No surprises here.
- H: www.helsinki.fi/~mjkinnun/blog.html. Matti’s blog.
- I: www.imperiumi.net. Metlhdez’r'us.
- J: joystiq.com. Decent games news site.
- K: kottke.org. Jason Kottke’s blog.
- L: www.lavonardo.net/blog. Me, myself and I.
- M: www.metacritic.com. A universal review aggregator.
- N: www.nokia.com. Was looking for hard facts on the new N-series phones.
- O: www.oreillynet.com. Still among the best three technical publishing companies, and their web-presence is up to the standard of the books.
- P: www.pelit.fi. The best games magazine (and a decent website too).
- Q: www.qwantz.com/merchandise.html. That shirt with a purple octopus on it will so be mine.
- R: www.roklintu.com. Music news in finnish.
- S: slashdot.org. Daily ritual. Though the community seems to be a living proof of Sturgeon’s Law.
- T: telkku.com. No-nonsense tv-guide.
- U: Nothing under the letter ‘U’. Surprising.
- V: www.vltava.fi.
Checked the menu, both before and after visiting. - W: wired.com. A decent magazine that survived the dotcom implosion well (though the page count was halved).
- X: xe.com. How cheap is the USD these days really?
- Y: www.ytv.fi. Time tables for the municipal traffic. Or actually just a link to them.

- 1..0: Nothing under URLs that begin with a number.
