Google back door reveals 22,300 results for brrreeeport

For those not in the loop, Robert Scoble of the Scobleizer blog suggested a couple of days ago that everyone put “brrreeeport” in there blog, to test out search engines and blog trackers like technorati. Well it was all fun and games, but today google shut down any queries for brrreeeport and showed zero results

Anyway, I was tooling around in my logs and noticed a few hits from an ip address http://72.14.207.104/search and what do you know, its google, but with the “brrreeeport” filter off. Anyway, it reveals 22,300 for brrreeeport. Robert should feel quite proud of his little social experiment, if VH1′s best week ever picked up on this in a couple of days, how long to CNN?

Here’s a screen shot of google because I don’t know how long that ip will be working, and some enterprising fellow has registered www.brrreeeport.com
