1. A site called ‘Who Represents‘ where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity. Their domain name… wait for it… is
www.whorepresents.com2. Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views at
www.expertsexchange.com
Oh, there’s more.

ooops, sorry, my bad…that should have been:

Looked good until they came to the logo: DOPER
