Neat little video on how youtube generates video ids and why

(1/1)

mouser:
Neat little video on the video url ids that youtube uses, with side discussions on base64 and why not to use incremental numbering for online url ids:


from waxy.org

Deozaan:
Interesting video. Thanks. :Thmbsup:

I never realized it was essentially base-64 with the "/" changed to a "_"
