    Those folks over at thelongestdomainnameintheworldandthensomeandthensomemoreandmore.com claim that their domain name is the longest in the world.

    True?

    What's that Welsh one?

    According to the Guinness book of records 2002 (which I got for xmas) it's the Welsh one. But hey, it's a mere book which is like non-digital and stuff so hey I dunno. It's a good read though especially if you're from Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch and are 8 foot tall and have the worlds longest fingernails.

    Domain names can be up to 256 characters long correct ? So that means there can be many domain names to claim the longest domain name title.

    However if you take into account the .com extension or whatever you could make it longer using .com.au or something like that. Maybe .info would do it.
