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.

- zuck9 11y agoThe minimum is 1 character excluding the TLD. Like Twitter has http://t.co http://t.co

- killwhitey 11y agoActually even zero character ones exist http://uz/ http://uz/
- mahouse 11y agoIt does not resolve here.
- RubyPinch 11y agoInteresting 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.
- BillinghamJ 11y agoThat 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.
- TazeTSchnitzel 11y agoWell, I suppose the root counts as a zero-character domain. The trailing . makes it fully-qualified.
- calebegg 11y agoIt only works for me (OS X, Safari) when written as http://uz./ http://uz./ (a proper FQDN)
- veb 11y agoI'd be pretty interested to see how much a domain like this would sell for...
- ipp 11y agoThere'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.
- Pirate-of-SV 11y agoFor 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
- Buge 11y agoIt'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 .
