Hi Travis-
Is it impractical?
I've used a simple date+rand constructor and ran it through an encoding to HEX to get a 'random' object id and had no troubles with that. I suppose it has limits to uniqueness in theory but it was quick to generate.
I was also about to start looking for something more short, like bit.ly urls ? More like a mod-counter with a nice set of case-sensitive characters.
I was just about to ask if someone know's of a good slice of code or method to do just that so I could adopt something more modern?
I figured for certain WO URLs it might be clean and won't expose id ordering in a URL so I'd write an apache rule or two and use an object-id like the die above? Not smart?
