Ireland, New Zealand, same difference

This is a quite an amusing search quirk on Google. If you search for Google Ireland it doesn’t report the obvious result of www.google.ie as you might expect, but instead returns www.google.co.nz.

Google Error

Thanks to TechCrunch for pointing this one out – this error was first spotted on the 15th October and it’s still returning the same result

Amusingly the second result is for Google Thailand.. um, how far removed can you get really?
