@Senseful hence my mention - while not 'true' publicized I don't know why you'd call it a service a secret when it's creators explicitly mention it's not.

I would not consider the tip about going into your own account to see the list you created as being publicized because only you can see that page, right? From your example, it seems that it is not sequential. So that only leaves "secret" or "publicized". I know that you can replace the letter in a URL and arrive at the link, but I would still consider that secret. I mentioned that with a secret URL there still is a chance that someone will land on it, but it's unlikely. | |
