When I read about web-servers the last time, they were different. Back then, a page in the web root (usually the '/var/www' directory) mapped to one URL. For instance a page called "abc.php" mapped to "http://www.example.com/abc.php". For more complicated URLs, you had to tweak your httpd.conf. But that was in the times of PHP. These days, things have changed!

A few days ago, I had to see if it was possible to stream photos to an AppleTV via Apple's Airplay protocol. After reading Apple's documentation, I figured that using the API available on iOS, it was possible to stream audio and video only! But no photos! (What!? Why? Apple is weird!)
