I like this trend of making single-page domain names out of what would just be a blog post advocating something with clear points and logic. They feel like they'll have more impact when linking someone to them.

Youve been played. Its less about advocating anything but more about the page rank of the domains it links to. Lets not be naive. The content here is almost zero and could be summarized with one simple english sentence containing the word 'because'.

I know I have seen lots of these, but I can't really remember any of them now. I can think of http://two.sentenc.es/. What are some more examples?

Here is another: http://whatifgoogledoesit.com/

I dunno, random-generation pages like this or http://whatthefuckshouldimakefordinner.com (which has thrown me some neat recipes) seem a bit different from single-essay sites.

http://www.comicsanscriminal.com/

http://www.comicfuckingsans.com (my little parody of the comic sans hate)

http://foldr.com/

http://foldl.com/

http://giveupandusetables.com/

http://shouldiusetablesforlayout.com/

That page would look nicer if the text were vertically centered. I know a really easy way to do that using tables.

The winner, pehaps, for longest one-word domain name?

aw man, I opened this in Fx and Ch, hoping they'd done some html acrobatics and got it displaying completely differently in each browser but, actually, their site looks exactly the same in every browser...

I think it's from a while back (it's Dan Cederholm's push to help people get over that concern).

Also Firefox and Chrome almost certainly aren't the browser people would be worried about in such a case. Break out a vm and try an older version of IE.
