While searching for “text hosting” on google I recently found pastebay.org. Its a text hosting service with a twist. You can host pieces of code by pasting it in what they call pastebin. They give you a free subdomain if you want to have private place and hide your code from normal surfers. What they are claiming is that users of Pastebay.org will visit each others contents and help each other out in coding related queries. The site is aimed at coders who need some help on coding certain pieces of code.
Here is a piece from Pastebay itself:-
What is pastebay?
Pastebay is here to help you collaborate on debugging code snippets. If you’re not familiar with the idea, most people use it like this:
* submit a code or text fragment to pastebin, getting a url like http://pastebay.com/1234
* paste the url into an IRC or IM conversation
* someone responds by reading and perhaps submitting a modification of your code
* you then view the modification, and collaborate with others
That’s the process they are talking about. There is an option to password protect your post too.
There is no chance of your original code being lost with a suggestion made by someone elase, as whenever someone modifies your pasted code to make a suggestion, they create a new post below the original. I have no idea if this concept is gonna work but I have made a subdomain with them and posted a code. Lets see what happens.
