Let's start a new game here. It works like this, you type in one word only and tell us the word and results, and the next person has to try to beat it with a word that gets more results. I'll start with an easy one:

IceTeks
Results: 2 :lol:

Wow, we are getting in the billions now! Hard to beat. Maybe it's the biggest one? Let's see if anyone else can beat it. I can't, I'll have to keep trying. :)

or you could go with clostest to a specific numberof hits, or most hits with a certain number of characters. Those would be pretty easy to change and restart once things got slow.
