Maybe They’ll Send me a Google Hat!

I just submitted a bug report to Google. I’m trying to launch a new site, Scouting News, and I was at Google News so I went to fill out their form to get it crawled. I know Scouting News isn’t finished or really even started but there is some content there! I’m working on the design and such… Anyway when you browse away from Google News they don’t strip the subdomain which makes it so their relative links don’t work, you get 404s.

If you wish to recreate it:
Start at Google News.
Click on “Advanced News Search
Click on “All About Google
Click on “Submitting your Site

Until they fix it you’ll get a “Not Found,” all because of a pesky subdomain. Maybe they’ll send me a Google Hat for helping them out!
