    Problem is not solved with bit.ly. There are number of people who don't like url shorteners, because they don't know where they will be after redirect.

      I fully agree. But it is a workable solution for now ;)[/quote]

      Yes a temporary workaround, until it gets fixed

        Hardly. A wiki could never run with external websites listed with URL shorteners.
        People want to know where to go. It's not really workable. I wouldn't put a site on the wiki with a shortener.

        And please don't reply to my posts with a 'yes' or 'i agree'.

            tamhanna, they are dangerous, because you don't know what will be after redirect. Maybe url was posted by spamer and you will go to virused site instead of going to news site. Url shorteners are of course good thing but only in some cases (like twitter).

              This is not twitter. And I would not follow links of URL shorteners. Let alone that they are cumbersome to create.
