+## binit -- minimal pastebin-like in 100 lines of golang
+
+That's just it. Preliminary version of a minimal, no-fuss
+pastebin-like service in golang. 
+
+Needs a folder "pastes/" to exist on the same dir where the program is
+run from. At the moment, it binds on `localhost:8000` and serves
+pastes in the format:
+
+    localhost:8000/abcdef1234567890
+
+The unique ID of a paste is obtained from the SHA256 of the
+concatenation of title, time, and content. Rendering is minimal, but
+can be enhanced. 
+
+### TODO
+
+* Add a config file (hostname, port, pastedir)
+* Add a simple template system
+
