Comment (by arnee):
Sorry, I don't really see the benefit of including a 300-line library for
generating "just" a random string. I think a sha1 hash of microtime() and
the blog URL is enough random and unique for this case, a call to
/dev/urandom or initializing COM objects sounds just a bit excessive, no?
