   Here is related paper that I liked a lot

http://www.bmj.com/cgi/content/full/330/7500/1128

   esp, note on the fourth page, the author writes

| Examination of some of the URL names in the random samples taken,
| however, suggests that several of them were probably intended to be
| there only temporarily (for example, URLs containing the word
| "journal club") for the purpose of sharing important information.
