Storing data the fun way
Storing data is not a problem anymore. Google gives you a couple of gigabytes email storage for free, Yahoo! gives you “unlimited” email storage, a plethora of sites like YouSendIt and Files4Ever give you plenty of storage, and hooking up your own machine to the online world never has been easier with all the cheap ADSL/Cable connections we have nowadays. All good, but not fun. Therefor, let’s store text in a place people wouldn’t suspect (and probably don’t want).
Like the avalanche of file sharing websites mentioned before, another breed of website seems to be quite popular: the URL shorteners. TinyURL, is.gd, etc. etc. There are many and a lot of them don’t care what you feed them! (I bet you start seeing where I’m going with this post…)
