The longest web adress... according to guiness... is for this town in Wales ( if I'm remembering correctly it's in Wales) and is as follows...

http://www.llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.co.uk

The town's name means:
Saint Mary's church in the hollow of the white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the church of Saint Tysilio of the red cave.

Nitpick

Assuming "web address" means "URL", that's not true. Clearly, "domain name" is the term we're looking for.

Hey, at least I didn't carp about your spelling...

It's not like I really care that much...
