Logchat

Communicate through HTTP server request logs.

What??

Situation: You and a buddy want to chat, and you both have read access to a server's request logs and the ability to make requests to the other server.

Solution: Logchat. Every message is sent as a HTTP GET request, and the receiving party constantly scans the request log for new messages.

Why??

TODO

How??

To use:

shards install
crystal build main.cr
./main /var/log/nginx/access.log http://the-server-of-the-person-you-want-to-talk-to.example.com/

Security?

The extremely secure Base64 encryption algorithm is used for transmitting messages.

Also this method is so bizarre unique that you could also call it security by obscurity.
