[Noisebridge-discuss] Need help painting a bikeshed

[Albert Sweigart]

I've been meaning to ramp up the functionality of nburl.net. I could
add a textarea to the site so that we could write a simple script that
generates all the parts/XYZ text and then just copy/paste it to the
site.

Feel free to email me any other ideas.
