Made You Look - oh Google....how you disappoint me some more

From New Scientist, Sept 2-8, 2006, P. 64

"So what's this "FWSEing," you ask? Lawyers for a famous web search engine (FWSE) beginning with G have been sending out letters to remind publications that we must not use their trademarked name as a verb, lest we "dilute" it and turn it into an ordinary English word that
nobody can sue over. So we shan't. "Foosieing" it is from now on. I Fwse, thou FWSEest, she, he or it FWSEies..."

Man, this is lame and anal.
