How stupid could it be?

One of my wingmates was sitting besides me and asked me to go to the URL aai-to-aai-dot-com (this is how he pronounced and any other indian would do). With all the common sense in the world and with the most powerful tool on earth (popularly known as Google) I was unable to get to this URL. I tried the following links:
i2i.com
eye2eye.com
(2 replaced with to and two and other permutation combination).

[Request: Before reading ahead please try it yourself. Coffee assured for the right guess :) ]

Being a maths student I always thought its stupid to try all the p&c's and being a computer science student I know a term heruistic :).

OK coming back to the point, the site which we wanted to visit was "i2eye.com" which we found out after browsing through the wingmates browsers history.

In the evening when I tried this exercise with few of my friends (who on an average browses the net at least 4-5 hours a day) ...the same result. Not a single person was able to get to the right URL.

This site can never get what we "kota-packaged" known as "mouth publicity".

Girls hate when I draw conclusions as they say I'm very bad at it but this time I would say please do this simple exercise before you book another web-address :)

Cheers!!

  4. True. But how much of the WWW runs on "mouth publicity"?
