Address Bar Guesses

Like so many things these days, the Firefox address bar attempts to guess what sites I want to visit based on what I start typing. I decided to see what sites are the ones that come up first with each letter of the alphabet.

A - APDC Interpreters Bank I'm currently working on a project with them

B - Blackboard School stuff

C - CBC Canadian election news

D - Dominosa Puzzle game I no longer play

E - Etymonline.com Etymology dictionary

F - Facebook

G - Gmail

H - Hack Slash Crawl Flash game I no longer play

I - Institutional Research Board School stuff

J - Jay is Games Causal gaming site

K - Kayak Flight finder

L - Slither Link Puzzle game

M - Mu Cow Self-referential!

N - Nurikabe Puzzle game

O - Orisinal Flash games

P - Penrose Library Campus library

Q - Quest Diagnostics From when I was being medically cleared for the Peace Corps

R - RTE Irish election news

S - Sporcle Quiz games

T - The Cinema Snob Videos of reviews of bad movies

U - US Election Atlas Information on past US elections

V - Valmyndigheten Information on past Swedish elections

W - Wachovia

X - Google Reader The Local's RSS feed

Y - YouTube

Z - Google Account Logout Warning, this link will cause you to log out of your Google account.

I'm personally entertained that four of these deal with elections.
