If you search Google for www.widget.com one of the options is:
Find web pages that contain the term "www.widget.com"
The link contain the string "+www.widget+.com"
If it is www.widgets.info the string is "+www.widget.+info"
And if it is www.widgets.co.nz the string is "+www.widget.c+o.nz"
In fact the last 4 characters are split regardless of the domain name. I'm sure this isn't what they meant to do.
