Is there a default public chrome-cast receiver we can use?

From Google's documents we are asked to setup our own web server to host the receiver.html.

Is there a default public chrome-cast receiver that can be used by any one?

I just need the very basic receiver, the same as the receiver.html that provided in the CastSample, but I don't want to run my own server to host this simple file.

Thanks!

There is another simple way to do this. There is a site called pastehtml.com, where you can host a simple html for free and stays forever. You can even edit it whenever you want. Just now created mine, but I havent yet submitted it to google. Will keep you posted, once I get an approval or rejection from google on my device's whitelisting.

Chromecast receivers are tied to a URL, so I don't see how there could be a public one for a custom application, unless someone publishes a receiver that offers a service that your sender needs.

Bear in mind that the receiver needs to be publicly hosted on the web, but it doesn't not need to be dynamically generated. You could, for example, upload your html/css/js files to Amazon S3 and configure it to serve them very cheaply. There are probably other places where you can host files and have them served over http for minimal cost.
