#2The fact that now I can, on other people's computer, type gist.github.com/my_username, show people all my snippets, makes my day! Thx guys, you've always been so thoughtful.

#3This is great. But, one request if you're in meddling with gists, could you make them work with orgs!
Please and thanks.

#4Wow, I'm impressed, Github. You also fixed the problem for users whose user names are numbers#. Two birds, one stone!
# Originally, gist.github.com/abc was the gist page for a user, and gist.github.com/123 was a gist URL. Numeric users were brought to unrelated gists of that ID.

So, now anyone can register a pure numeric user (e.g. 30) of an old gist to block https://gist.github.com/30 from redirecting?
