A shout out to Ian Holsman(dead site?) for providing me with the basis for the modauthnpop3 module.

I was reading the Binary Cloud website last night, and came upon their incomplete documentation. One part that struck me as important was the discussion on the design of URIs.

Quote from binarycloud theory section on URIs:

The good: http://www.example.com/2002/category/design_patterns.html

The Bad: http://www.example.com/?c=category?y=2002?a=design_patterns

The ugly: http://www.example.com/article_switcher.php?n=a303?d=2002?aid=3rtg83g3.393s034slak

I must admit, I have done the good, the bad, and the ugly before. But it doesn’t have to be this way. I think from now on I am commited to always be in the good.
