The Colbert Effect…
On Monday’s episode of The Colbert Report, Stephen made up a fictitious URL called ShirtlessHunksBaggingGroceries.com during a segment about the effects of gay populations on property prices.
Needless to say, the domain name was registered shortly thereafter. But even more amusing is the fact that “shirtless hunks bagging groceries” became the fourth most popular search term on Google that day.
Watch out Digg and Slashdot; this is the Colbert Effect!
