Public Sticky notes
Amazon.com feeds out a lot of product images, putting out the same book
cover (say) in a variety of sizes and formats. By experimentation, I
found that they don't actually have all the sizes and formats stored.
Instead, they have a system that generates each requested image. The
details of size and format are built into the image's URL.
