Let's have some fun. Who can find me the longest valid, registered domain name? And no fair registering it yourself... prize to the winner =)
Note: If your guess isn't longer than http://www.abcdefghijklmnopqrs..., try again - Mike Sego
Bonus points if the page is What you need, when you need it - Mike Sego
"What you need, when you need it." Awesome. - Bret Taylor
http://www.atsixtythreesymbols... (warning: it's link farmish). I needed it for this challenge, but that's too flimsy for even me to award bonus points :) - Micah
Can you add an adendum to your request. The link has to go to a real website? - ChiliMac
Rahul's domain pick was apparently submitted to and rejected by Guinness World Records. Rejection letter: http://www.sabahan.com/2007... - Micah
Further googling has revealed that a domain name can't exceed 63 characters. I don't like limits :( - Rahul Das
In the early 90s, I think '95, I found an exploit of this limit (63 characters) as many internet apps had a char buf[64] or buf[256] declared for domain names, leading to a buffer overflow attack. Good ole Netscape 1.1: http://seclists.org/bugtraq... - Ray Cromwell
