Bike-shedding: What kind of domain name is ap.cs.ucy.ac.cy?

• adrianmonk 8y ago
  Not sure whether to interpret your comment as "this is not the best usability choice" or "what does this mean?", but here's my answer to the latter. .ac.cy is the Cyprus equivalent of .edu in the US. Or, more similarly, of .ac.uk in the UK. ucy is University of Cyprus. cs is their Computer Science department. ap is Anyplace, the name of the app.

  Looks like in Cyrpus (.cy) there is second level domains depending on the site, and ac.cy is for academic and research institutions. so ucy.ac.cy is the university of Cyprus, cs is the computer science subdomain, and ap for the anyplace sub subdomain. It does look odd...
