Browser alphabet meme

Snagged from many, many friends. Type a letter in your browser's address bar, and share where it suggests for you. Rules include: Embarrassing yourself, totally cool; violating someone else's privacy, not cool.


a: http://azurelunatic.dreamwidth.org/ - oh hey, home.

h: my journal again
i: http://www.dreamwidth.org/editpics - er, that redirects to editicons, now.
j: http://james-nicoll.livejournal.com/ - second is http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/notes/Common_Jargon
k: first is a Russian serial adder on LJ, second is a locked entry. Third is Google Calendar again.

z: http://zuckonit.livejournal.com/738.html - well damn, the journal's deleted! That was a "How did you like the movie?" entry, after the journal name was briefly mentioned in The Social Network. There was a bit of a conversation in the comments there.

I've seen this meme show up a lot, but one thing it doesn't explain is what to do if you end up with duplicate URLs for different letters. For instance, when I tried this, about five different letters brought up the URL for my Friends page, and another five brought up my RP character journal's Friends page. =P (Yeah, I'm really boring. XD )
