Welcome to Mongolia's New Postal System: An Atlas of Random Words
- yuningalexliu 10y agoVery cool idea! Just wondering if it's feasible to do something similar with two words?
- andyjdavis 10y agoSure but the area covered by each pair would be much larger due to the drastically smaller number of combinations available.
- 04rob 10y agoIt seems like a major drawback to this approach is that the address for nearby locations have nothing in common. That makes it harder to get a sense of where something is based on the address alone.
