There's an actual wikipedia entry on Goatse, and some of the mirrors, and it also talks about an ongoing auction for the domain name.

You have to name the 50 states in 10 minutes.

You can probably do it in 5.

I started at the 9 minute mark, and had 47 named by the 4 minute mark, then stared at the countdown with a blank mind until the end.

So when people roll 5 of a kind they yell "GOATSE!!!!!!".

Brilliant!

Some of you may remember this, but this is my conceptual packaging image I created around the application I was stuck helping code in-house to do project and task tracking at my last job.  In one of the design by committee brainstorming meetings on this application they were looking for ideas for a name for it, and I suggested "General Accounting Time System/Entry" for it, or "G.O.A.T.S.E." for short, and the project managers liked it, so the name stuck.   :lol:

Here's the image I threw together for what I imagined the packaging might look like if we ever polished the app up and sold it to our clients as an add-on (since this was for the software company for whom I worked):
