elgooG (Google spelled backwards) was a mirrored website of Google Search with horizontally flipped search results, which was made available at http://com.google by Google Inc. on April 1, 2015.[1] An unofficial elgooG website was originally created by All Too Flat “for fun”, which started to gain popularity in 2002.[2] All Too Flat's elgooG site found practical use in the People's Republic of China after the domestic banning of Google, circumventing the Great Firewall.[3] A whois request shows that the domain elgoog.com was registered to Google Inc. since 2000, but it is currently for sale.[4]
