Octopus Overlords

Who still unconsciously types in gongold.com when they open their web browser.



I don't generally use book marks to get to front pages, probably because I sit at a ton of different machines every day, only two of which are "mine."

After I hit the blue e, I find my fingers get as far as G-O-N before I realize what I am doing most of the time.

I actually have not done that yet and I am like you in that I don't use bookmarks, but instead type in the web sites when I go to them.

I moved my GoneGold bookmark out of my favorites a couple days ago.

I had to replace it with this one. 8)

I found myself typing it in a post recently and had to go back after and change it. Old habits die harder than the site that spawned them, evidently.

I've kept Gone Gold (RIP) in my favorites as a tribute.

gonegold.com has always been my wife's homepage on her PC at work - she asked me tonight if I'd change it tomorrow

i'm still typing it at least 2-3 times a day...

For me the switch was easy, especially at work where I just type in the address...

I only type the addresses for my 'standard' websites once every few months since I'm using Opera, so I can't say I've had the opportunity to accidentally type ww.gonegold.com yet. But I'm sure I will at some point.

Will you type in www.gonegold.com after that?

Hah. Whoops.

How many of you still CLICK on it just to be sure?

Guilty here. I never thought I would get that attached to a website.

I haven't, but then again I put this site in my bookmarks soon as Meal told me about it, so I haven't really been tested.
