Taking the idea from the 6 degrees of separation theory
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_separation)
I have an idea for a game that might entertain a few bored minds on here.

How many links does it take you to get from

http://www.overclockers.co.uk
to
http://www.organdonation.nhs.uk/

Rules are:
- Only weblinks on the webpage can be clicked
- No text can be entered into any site
- Solutions must show the entire web history
- All webpages posted (including the history as proof) must conform to the OcUK rules (competitors, family friendly etc), if they do not then it is not a valid path and must not be posted

Whoever reaches the desination first then selects the next site to get to from the previous destination.

It doesn't really work with a shop page as aside from forum posts they don't link to anywhere else :p
 
Doing it from the wiki is much better as there are tons of internal links. For example, what is the least amount of pages to navigate through to get from Hockey to Highlighter.
 
Yeah we've done it on Wikipedia before, there's probably an old thread knocking about somewhere here still.
