Is it still a Googlewhack if it is a typo?
I offer the following evidence:




For those not familiar with the idea of a Googlewhack, Urban Dictionary explains it is:

a combination of two words that when searched through the popular search engine "google" only give one result.

Wikipedia goes into more depth, yet is silent on the topic of spelling.

I argue that stsadmin, or it's correct form, stsadm are not words, so can't be typos - and as such I'm claiming it!  :-)

If you are following the Urban Dictionary definition, as well as saying that 'stsadm' is not a word (let alone 'addcontentdatabase'), then it wouldn't be a Googlewhack, because it's not "a combination of two words...", regardless of typos or not. Besides, you get the same single Google result even without the 'typo'. My question is do people's names count in Googlewhacks?
