Mmmmmmm. Bacon.
-
@gamerchick02 #Bacon is fantastic, but there's one thing better than bacon: DUCK BACON! http://tr.im/rVmx
-
@t3knomanser: Have they thought about creating a bac.on url shortener?
-
@gamerchick02 Hah. That'd be awesome. Take a big, fatty, URL and reduce it to a crispy, greasy URL.
-
@t3knomanser:: I think it's a brilliant idea. Who else is with me? And how do you implement such an idea?
-
@gamerchick02 Why no bac.on? Well, there is no top-level domain of .on to support that.
-
@gamerchick02 Basically, you just use a hashing algorithm and a DB and HTTP redirects.
-
@alpacaherder: Makes sense, but it's too bad we can't have a bac.on url shortener. At least it would be amusing! :)
-
@gamerchick02 Write ICANN, see if a registry for .on can be set up on the cheap. Then such can happen, I hope.
-
@gamerchick02 It's impossible to get new TLDs. They should just open it up and allow anybody to start a new TLD.
-
@alpacaherder: Heh. I wasn't really serious, but it would be neat. :)
-
@t3knomanser Impossible? I vaguely recall some jibber-jabber about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unrestricted_gTLDs last year...
-
@t3knomanser ICANN is slow to move, period. Understandably, I suppose.
-
@narc It'd be nice if they started with a more flexible organization model. They didn't really anticipate the growth of DNS.
-
@alpacaherder There's a .on.ca. You could get http://bac.on.ca/
