What alternatives would you consider? Big Magento fan here but it takes some hair pulling to understand how to write extensions in the beginning - relatively high learning curve.. It is a bit of an overkill however.
Cool to see but stupid idea, who in their right mind would use this for production?! By using such a "technology", you lose SEO strength due to urls-not-being-like-this.html and even worse, what can stop me from publishing a fake press release on there site/spamming porn and getting that URL indexed? And what are the benefits? To also bring SOPA into this, couldn't I share copyrighted material on someone's site like this? How could they control that?! Besides blocking each URL manually. Just seems dumb. As a concept, cool, but for production.... Yikes?!

All nuclear plants should switch to Thorium to be honest. Much safer and there's so much available, it's crazy. Shame that it didn't get researched that much since it's not so good for making nukes.
