This article is aimed squarely at people like me. I'd heard of them. I kept meaning to look them up everytime I saw them mentioned. I finally did when I saw your articale and it was the perfect intro that I was looking for :)

Learned about them when I was told to implement one for iBooks (for search) — over a decade ago.

They're really fun. I get so excited when a problem presents itself that requires a bloom filter (which can be rare depending on the domain unfortunately).
