Apple's domains
- lbotos 15y agoI may be a novice but shouldn't that document not be in a webroot or shouldn't the webserver not render it? I mean, It's not giving any terribly sensitive information but I'd assume that it shouldn't be just dumping like that?
- timothya 15y agoIn case it goes away, here's a copy: http://pastebin.com/yZxWJD9n http://pastebin.com/yZxWJD9n
- thomasfl 15y agoIt's gone away. Thanks for sharing this.
- pixelcort 15y agoMy favorite is http://mammals.org http://mammals.org.
- michaelpinto 15y agoit seems like it was part of an old project: http://www.quora.com/Why-did-Apple-purchase-Mammals-org-and-why-does-it-redirect-to-Apple-com http://www.quora.com/Why-did-Apple-purchase-Mammals-org-and-...

- glhaynes 15y agoIt's been a long time (obviously), but I think I recall mammals.org being registered right around the same time they were starting to use names like Darwin and Carbon.
- michaelpinto 15y agoImagine if you will being in the meeting when Jobs shot down the idea "damn it mammals are just too whimpy! i want fierce creatures like big angry cats!!!"
- FreshCode 15y agoairport.com - what a domain.
- nik_0_0 15y agoWow! And Airport products weren't even released until 1999. I'm not sure how they did that. Probably something to do with liquid cash assets ;)
- kooshball 15y agoseems like icloud.org shouldn't be listed under .br
- deleted 15y ago[deleted]
- spitfire 15y agoThat list shows a huge amount of earnt knowledge. Notice the www.applesmartcovers.com domains? That sort of stuff, while obvious in hindsight, probably nets them hundreds of $K alone.
- palish 15y agoSorry, could you expand on that? It sounds interesting, but I don't understand the logic.
- gauravk92 15y agoI'm not too sure either, but my guess is in implied value, where without an apple and iPad and smart cover, the domain is worth $5/mo but with it, it's obvious prime Internet real estate and worth a lot more. As for how much money apple actually makes from this domain, I'm pretty confident nothing.
- mgkimsal 15y agoSEO
- program 15y agothe perl script is broken in all other sites as well. E.g. http://imac.com/init http://imac.com/init
- landr0id 15y agoSame with http://appl.com/init http://appl.com/init, and in case it goes away: http://pastebin.com/HSagC973 http://pastebin.com/HSagC973

- matheusalmeida 15y agoIsn't a bit strange that www.apple.co.uk isn't in apple's huge list of domains?
- apike 15y agoThis is only a subset of Apple's less important domains. For example, iwork.com, apple.ca, itunes.com, etc. are not here.
- beggi 15y agoIt seems to me that this is a list of their domains that have no functionality other than to redirect to another place. Of the few I tested, they all resolved to the same IP address as well.
- conradev 15y agoHowever, each redirecting domain has this file viewable, so most are publicly viewable. For example, http://itunes.com/init http://itunes.com/init.
- sixcorners 15y agoWeird, half the time that redirects to http://search.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZContentLink.woa/wa/link?path=init http://search.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZContentLink.woa/...
- zeynalov 15y agoWhy mammals.org?!
- lince 15y agoIt have been replied on top by @michaelpinto : "it seems like it was part of an old project: http://www.quora.com/Why-did-Apple-purchase-Mammals-org-and-... http://www.quora.com/Why-did-Apple-purchase-Mammals-org-and-...

- j_baker 15y agoJust out of curiosity, what is the last line for? 1;
- gwillen 15y agoCauses the file to evaluate to 'true' when loaded as a Perl library, which is good form to indicate no error.
- tastive 15y agoPerl modules must return a true value (>0). 1; at the end is the easiest way, but if the last statement in the module always evaluates to true, you're similarly okay. Yeah, it's weird. :/
- ben1040 15y agoI like the domain for "MacOS X Leon."
- hughesey 15y agoCan find them using Reverse IP Lookups as well: e.g. http://viewdns.info/reverseip/?host=ipod.com http://viewdns.info/reverseip/?host=ipod.com Try a few other of their domains and see what else is hosted on the same server.
- necenzurat 15y agoOk, what was the guy who fount this looking for in the first place?
- pooriaazimi 15y agoSuch a shame they don't own aapl.com, mac.org & macintosh.{com,org}... Off topic: I've noticed that recently, Google's first result for 'Mac' has (mysteriously) changed from "apple.com/mac" to "maccosmetics.com"!
- alasano 15y agoThat's very interesting. Seems like an unfeasible task to outrank Apple using that keyword.
- Xorlev 15y agoMy search for Mac has a local cosmetics salon ranked first.
- tonyrice 15y agoI also did a search and I can confirm that www.maccosmetics.com is indeed first. Interesting.
- JacobAldridge 15y agoWell my beautiful wife will buy six Mac Cosmetics products some months, outnumbering the total amount of Apple products purchased by our household ever (a total which includes 0 Macs). So it makes some sense to me that more people searching "mac" are looking for the cosmetics, which they research, review, and buy regularly, especially if a portion of Apple searchers are also using more specific terms like "macbook" or "air".

- obituary_latte 15y agoWoman buy a _lot_ of cosmetics.
- maaku 15y ago
- philipdlang 15y agoCheck out all the microsoft ones at the bottom...
- Permit 15y agoThose just indicate redirects to Microsoft's website, Apple-owned domains.
- jrockway 15y agoWhat really scares me is that somewhere, some code that looks like "%matrix = (); do 'init'; ..." exists. That's one way to implement config files, I guess...
- rachelbythebay 15y agoAsk someone to show you i2.
- steventruong 15y agoI'm curious on how many TLD extensions Apple owns for "apple" i.e. apple.com, apple.net, etc
- jedediah 15y agoFor a far more extensive list, see http://www.aboutus.org/Apple.com#redirectory- http://www.aboutus.org/Apple.com#redirectory-
- alexhaefner 15y agoCan someone explain to me what this is (or was since it is no longer listed)?
- rainboiboi 15y agoForbidden You don't have permission to access /init on this server. seems like we have hackers from apple visiting!
- tastive 15y agoThe perl here will give me nightmares. %matrix = ( key => val, k2 => v2 ); is your friend :( yes, i scare easily.
