Many (often questionable) website operators have registered slight misspellings of popular URLs in the hopes of getting traffic. See microsotf.com (look out—popups), appel.com, and whitehouse.com (warning: some adult content—the U.S. presidential residence is whitehouse.gov, by the way).

Which is why I'm surprised that no one owns nuxeiaidr (.com, .net, or anything else). That's what you'd type if you were trying to go to microsoft.com, but moved your fingers one key to the left on a QWERTY keyboard.

Okay, maybe it's not that surprising. Never mind.
