Jot
=======
A server-less pastebin-esque note-taking app.
**Demo**: http://alfg.github.io/jot
### Features
* A simple, elegant design
* Retains formatting of messages
* Data is base64 encoded into the URL hash, so no data is stored on a server
* Easy to share via encoded URL
* Simple to deploy. Just a few static files.
* Add a secret key with encryption support via Blowfish
### Notes
* Most modern browsers limit the URL to 2000 characters. Messages can easily generate a long URL depending
on the content. So it is best to keep messages minimal (TODO lists, short snippets of code, etc...).
* Use a URL shortening service to shorten the URL when sharing. Jot URLs can typically be very long
depending on the content.
