Thanks, anonymous hero... actually, who owns/provides this? The only credit I can see is for the web design.

I wonder how they managed to get such a short domain name, I thought 3 characters was the minimum. And it must cost quite a lot.

  The minimum is 1 character excluding the TLD. Like Twitter has http://t.co http://t.co

    Actually even zero character ones exist http://uz/ http://uz/

      It does not resolve here.

        Interesting side-effect, windows doesn't support TLD-only addresses. .monash used to also have the same property (if I am not mistaken), until they realized this fact, I imagine.

      That isn't a zero character name. It's just the TLD itself acting as a website. It's a 1 label domain rather than the usual 2-3 labels.

        Well, I suppose the root counts as a zero-character domain. The trailing . makes it fully-qualified.

      It only works for me (OS X, Safari) when written as http://uz./ http://uz./ (a proper FQDN)

  I'd be pretty interested to see how much a domain like this would sell for...

  There's a lot of 2-letter domains: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-letter_second-level_domain#Two-letter_domain_names https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-letter_second-level_dom... Single-letter domains for .org, .net, and .com are/were reserved, although there are exceptions such as http://www.x.org http://www.x.org. Other TLDs may vary.

  For those who are looking for short domains .SE is selling a few at the moment. http://www.tradera.com/campaign/punktse http://www.tradera.com/campaign/punktse

  It's actually easy to get a 2 character name if you are willing to use an obscure tld. I own http://0k.nu http://0k.nu and I just regularly registered it. I also own http://π.pw http://π.pw and http://ಠ.com http://ಠ.com .
