@evan could !Identica start using http://ng.gd instead of ur1.ca by default for shorter url and gopher support? @bleakgadfly !statusnet

@bleakgadfly URL-hiders are bad absolutely, beyond any software freedom problems of particular implementations
-
@bleakgadfly delicious spam ;) So I must have been one of the first users, my url-shortened blog now is only 7 chars (w/o prefix) : nd.gd/e
-
@bleakgadfly Problem: is.gd sounds like "is good", nd.gd ...well, with today's grammar sounds almost like "not good" :\
-
@bleakgadfly Sooo, nd.gd basically a pink clone of ur1.ca?
-
@bleakgadfly Yes, bad ideas (like restrictions on string length) often lead to further bad ideas (like URL-hiders)
-
@bleakgadfly I did. OK, OK, I'll buy the 2.2 char domain + #Gopher support ;)

@jargon Did someone say something about Ted Nugent?
-
@bleakgadfly Nice, but one of the things I like in bit.ly and tinyurl (for example) is the custom (and thus easy to remember) URLs.
-
@bleakgadfly how long will these shortlinks last? i mean i got a really short "r" for a very cool item, can i use this link on & on & on?
-
@bleakgadfly that means i can keep my tiny little "r"? hehehe - great! thanks a lot!!!

@jargon aka the Nuge
-
@jargon He's a pro-gun, libertarian rock star who like snake skin outfits and blowing things up.
-
@eximious He also likes Sarah Palin, unfortunately. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/29/ted-nugent-on-sarah-palin_n_556880.html

@frankenspock Oh, I wasn't saying I was pro-NUGE. Just that it is funny that shortening a url could be called NUGEing it.
-
@bleakgadfly I like it! Altough nudged browser plugins for Firefox and Chromium would be nice...
-
@dpic no.
-
