  1. There is a brilliant pastebin page over at www.pastebin.ca, people use it to post code snippets and show each other when they need help for instance.
    There are many pastebins, i like this one because it's pretty clean and also because you can get a "raw" version of the post, that contains nothing but text.

    Normal paste example
    http://pastebin.ca/641813
    Raw paste example
    http://pastebin.ca/raw/641813

    Now, thats all good, but lets say that i want to add a signature to that quote above, i want to add "C. Dickens" at the end. I can always update the post at pastebin.ca, but i will get a new URL then.
    The URLs you read in this forum post would be out of date.

    Is there a similar web service where i can update the same post ,and keep the same URL?

    I'm thinking in the same way as one edits a forum post. There is probably a way to link to just a single forum post with a URL, but there will still be lots of formatting, and there will still be a need to have an account.

    I want to be able to make a quick post, give the URL to different people, and then change the content of the post without needing to inform all of my people that the URL has changed.....

  2. No suggestions?
    A workaround-solution, albeit a cumbersone one, would be if there exists a URL-relaying service that can be updated easily.

    Like this:
    original URL to text is www.pastebin.ca/10345
    A relay URL is created in the form of www.shorturl.com/ABCR ---> www.pastebin.ca/10345
    The text at pastebin is edited, www.pastebin.ca/10345 ----> www.pastebin.ca/10357
    The relay URL is updated www.shorturl.com/ABCR ---> www.pastebin.ca/10357
