Obama08.Com Redirecting To A Google Search

Source: Google Blogoscoped
URL: http://blogoscoped.com/archive/2008-08-27-n80.html

When you enter obama08.com into your address bar, you'll end up on a Google search for [Barack Obama]. This isn't any browser fallback for a non-existing domain or something... http://obama08.com actually has a temporary HTTP redirect towards that Google search URL. (Anyone could set this up, but I'm curious who did this and why -- I can't seem to find any good info in a Whois query or on the Wayback Machine.) [Thanks Andreas Schneider!]...
