• And now, something completely different: Have you ever heard of a ccTLD erecting monuments? We bet, you have not…but here is hoster.by to break the ground… well… literally and virtually, with the first ever monument to System Admin!
The ceremony of unveiling of a …VIRTUAL (!) monument with the symbolic cutting of the network cable (we hope no network suffered a blackout :)) took place in the heart of Belarus’s capital’s downtown on 25 July, on the eve of the System Admin Day. This way hoster.by congratulated all the system admins worldwide. To see the monument, one needs to download a dedicated app Minsk Monument AR (Android and iOS), come to a specific spot on 12, Komsomolskaya Str., find mounted in the pavement 80-cm cube with a QR code and fix a camera on it! –See full coverage in Russian here:Link (Photo)
