Revisit a specific genre or genre story so I can show it to someone else
Share that genre on Twitter with a link
For 1. this can be accomplished by looking for a query parameter in the URL. The shortcode can provide a link to the page it's on plus the genre with spacers between the words (%20 is obvious but it might be more readable if we did something like +, e.g. binaryjazz.us/genrenator/?genre=disco+indie).
Instead of just outputting the result of the genre creation logic, the shortcodes can look for ?genre= or ?story= in the URL. If they are there, they can just return a sanitized version of the string in the URL instead of getting a random genre.
The share on twitter functionality will simply link to a new tweet pop up with that URL and genre story as the text. For genres, we can have something like "Check out this new genre:" or else generate a random genre story and insert the genre into it and tweet that.
This is the main feature I want to add to 1.1 besides bugfixes.
