| Hi list,
I would be interested in any comments on the use of TinyUrl. Finding myself frequently enough in a situation where I want to give people Greenstone URLS (And we know how long they can be!) I have started using TinyURL to make it easier for others. It appears to work to solve my immediate problem (or rather the users' immediate problem). So three questions really - has anybody else tried this approach? Is there a downside that I'm missing? Could this ever be built into Greenstone itself? Julian ps, for those unsure of what I'm talking about, head off to http://tiny.cc | |
