Re: [OT] Domain names

["Ho Yin Ng" <architect.hoyin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks David,

I did a search on his website and found some sources - but wondering if you
knew the exact podcast where he talks about this in more detail?

is .am like .tv?

I always thought that if it is another country then it should be .com.am

i.e. like .com.hk for Hong Kong.

or can you get .hk?

It does seem like you need to be based in the country to get that countries
domain name though.

Thanks,

Ho yin
