They hotlink to that cloud image, oh noes.


They're storing the image off in the...


cloud!


Is this a "real" subdomain or a userpage? Oddly, the user "cloud" doesn't seem to have a cloud.github.com repository.


Looks like they have a CDN or something hosted under this sub-domain: http://cloud.github.com/downloads/shoes/shoes/nks.pdf


Haha, thanks for linking to Nobody Knows Shoes.

Yeah, it's a CDN. I uploaded that file on the downloads page[1] and that's what it resolves to.

"cloud-5"? Should have been "cloud-9".


This is Github's subdomain pointing to Amazon CloudFront. No news here, move along.


It's funny.
