The top 10 unintentionally worst company URLs.
1. A site called ‘Who Represents‘ where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity. Their domain name… wait for it… is www.whorepresents.com
2. Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views at www.expertsexchange.com
3. Looking for a pen? Look no further than Pen Island at www.penisland.net
4. Need a therapist? Try Therapist Finder at www.therapistfinder.com
5. Then of course, there’s the Italian Power Generator company…
www.powergenitalia.com6. And now, we have the Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales: www.molestationnursery.com
7. If you’re looking for computer software, there’s always www.ipanywhere.com
8. Welcome to the First Cumming Methodist Church. Their website is www.cummingfirst.com
9. Then, of course, there’s these brainless art designers, and their whacky website: www.speedofart.com
10. Want to holiday in Lake Tahoe? Try their brochure website at www.gotahoe.com
Hilarious! I don't know where you find these things, but you continue to amaze us.

Jason,
Hilarious. What's maybe even scarier is that #2 (expertsexchange.com) had come up before much closer to home:
There was a guy who was a contractor at the place where I work for over a year, doing Oracle database development. He actually used the expertsexchange.com website to look up technical stuff.
Well, he came home one day after work (this was like 6 months ago) and found his wife all distraught over something. After going around and around, with her asking him a number of times if "there isn't something you want to talk about" he finally got out of her that she'd noticed, in the browser history, a lot of page views on "expert sex change . com".
My friend about lost it and had to slowly bring her around to the fact that he was quite comfortable with his current, er, outlook; and that there was nothing anywhere near that exciting on the site in question.
Needless to say, we had a good time with the story around the office.

The last URL doesn't quite fit in. Really, LG, everyone in the legal profession should know this after last year's Seventh Circuit opinion US v. Murphy: There is a difference between a hoe and a ho.

Nothing new to add to the dialogue here. Just wanted to say this gave me a serious case of the giggles that needs to stop. Thanks!
