off topic: The SPWAW community

Post by Pack Rat »

I think this forum is one of the very best I've ever been a part of (only one other comes close). I'm truly amazed at the world wide community that has come together here. I'd like to be able to tell better where people are from though. Alot of e-mail addresses have a country code at the end, like I thought .gr was Germany but Aris set me straight as to the fact he is from Greece. Can anyone point me to a list of these country codes?

Thanks all. I find this all very interesting, but then I can spend all night just going through the SPWAW encyclopidia. ImageWhy have I never seen a symbol for the USA? Do we have one? Where can I get it?

It's .us
You usually only see it for official stuff like cities or school districts.

.nu is a small island kingdom called Niue, north of New Zealand, and that domain is very popular in sweden since it means "now" in swedish. There's a rumor going on that the entire population of the island has free internet mainly due to so many swedish URL buyers Image.
