File this one under ‘you learn something new every day’.

I may be the last person to know this, but example.org, example.com and example.org are domains reserved for use in documentation.

I tend to use ‘mysite.com’, ‘domain.com’, ‘yoursite.com’ and anything else.  I usually try and remove automatically generated hyperlinks because I don’t like to feed link juice to the owners of these domains.  But it still happens.

Then today I accidentally clicked on an automatically generated example.com Url, and found out it’s reserved for documentation.  No more link-juice bleeding from documentation and discussions about Urls.  Try it! http://example.com

I’m off to do some find/replace.
