I think this is great. The page is basically a markdown viewer and the link has markdown encoded in it. If you pass the URL through a URL shortener, then the URL shortener is effectively hosting the content of your page. It would be cool if this was static HTML and the markdown was rendered in JS.

This one has a WYSIWYG editor and renders the markdown using only javascript. All content is in the URL and isn't even sent to the server.

Nice! Uses compression as well, I see.
Would be super cool if the URL encoding schemes of these two sites were compatible!
OTH, I'm guessing the markdown-editor "site" cannot be searched.
Here is the result for the Google search of channelurl.com for "bird" / http://www.google.ca/cse?q=bird&cx=partner-pub-1886386989888...
Kind of fun that way too!
