internet - How does http://to./ work?


So I noticed this on Jeff's twitter. They don't have a tld, it seems?


How've they done this? Magic, bribery, or did a no-tld tld open up recently?



Answer



I believe that the way it works is simply who ever owns the TLD .to, simply set up an A record for the TLD itself and are providing this service.


For example, google.com and google.com. are actually the same address.


You can also access this site via http://to


Some domains use this technique to redirect you to where you can purchase domains from, this place seems to offer a free service.
