Abbreviation for organization; commonly used as a top-level internet domain (.org) for non-profit and organizational websites.
Shortened form of 'organization,' from Medieval Latin 'organizare' meaning 'to organize,' from Greek 'organon' (tool, instrument). The internet domain use began in 1985.
The .org domain was originally intended for organizations that didn't fit into .com (commercial) or .edu (educational), but it became particularly associated with non-profits. Ironically, there's no requirement to be non-profit to use .org, making it somewhat misleading.
