Shortest bit sequence that's never been sent over ...
Yeah, I sort of assumed that the Berry paradox was going to be the point too - Anyone who found the shortest bit sequence could never display it on a web page since that would cause its transmission over the Internet, making it ineligible...

Displaying a series of bits on a web page doesn't cause that series of bits to be transmitted.

Yeah, I realise that, but what if there was a link to a binary with those bits, etc.
