While talking with Brent and Gus, I dubbed this new school “The Delicious Generation”. Many of the design and marketing ideas of this new school seem to be derived from the successes of Delicious Library2, and I’m sure many members of this generation would readily and happily list it as an influence. So at the risk of increasing Wil Shipley’s ego (and starting a meme), the Delicious Generation is the term I’ll be using for the new school. The old school needs no other name.

That’s when I first ran across the idea of the Persistent Uniform Resource Locator or PURL. I noticed that some of the URLs were starting to all have the same hostname purl.fdlp.gov. PURLs were created by Stuart Weibel and Erik Jul at OCLC in 1995, and were picked up by the GPO in 1997 as a way to mitigate broken URLs. The FDLP and GPO are still using PURLs today.
