LMGTFY has negative connotations, but there is benefit in learning how other people searched for something. We built qggl.co as a fun (and DNS-abusive) way for people on forums to show their searches:

lua-users.jay-carlson.printf.qggl.it

Some sites will linkify URL-like things, but often .it (Italy) is not on the TLD list. In that case, you either need a leading

http://lua-users.jay-carlson.printf.qggl.it

or sometimes the "www." prefix will cue linkification:

www.lua-users.jay-carlson.printf.qggl.it
