Incredible.
My absolute favorite thing about modernity is how enabled we are to riff on a riff of a riff.
In 1346, if a blacksmith came up with something cool, its quite possible that it died with them.

#90I wonder if this can be paired with a local URL shortener? Chaining this with a local URL shortener can mean access to any doc with a single letter (or very letters).
