###V0.1

• Repo initialized

What is this?

It's just a simple multiple URL shortener built on top of FlaskEngine and Google App Engine.

The code is really easy to read. The main challenge i've found building it was to implement a distributed "autoincrement" subsystem.

You may want to take a look at it. It's located at: /libs/url_shortener/ShardGenerator.py
