Description : Unique id generator derived from Twitter's Snowflake.
License     : Apache 2.0
Maintainer  : smokejumperit@gmail.com
Stability   : experimental

This generates unique (guaranteed) identifiers build from a timestamp,
counter, and node id.  Identifiers are convertible to values which are
monotonically increasing with respect to time.
