A Five Minute Hack

19th December 2018

Click the link or type runes.rocks into your web browser and you will be directed to a random article about a rune inscription or runestone.

I love small ideas and experiments. They are cheap they scale from a few hours to a few moths. An example I’m often refer to is Kyrksok.se a site we build a few years ago in less then two days.

However runes.rocks and the Swedish version runor.rocks sets a new record. It took me five minutes to buy the domain names and everything up thanks to existing tools.

I bought domain names and pointed the redirect URL to Magnus Manske’s Random article tool and waited for the name servers to update. Done.
