Google Argentina's domain name bought by man for £2

Google Argentina's domain name was bought by a web designer while the site was out of action for two hours in the country last Wednesday.
Nicolas Kurona, aged 30, said he managed to buy Google.com.ar through a normal, legal process.
"I never imagined that it was going to allow me to buy it," he told the BBC.
Google Argentina told the BBC: "For a short term, the domain was acquired by someone else." It added it had regained control of the domain very quickly.
