Have you ever heard of tinyurl?

Yes I have, but I assume the URLs created will time expire, and as such are no good for archive purposes, which is, I believe one of the great strengths of usenet. Since any decent newsreader will preserve URLs, I can't see a reason to use tinhorn.

OT I know that Tiny URLs look neater but out of interest when do they wrap ? I have only ever used Agent for newsgroups (since about 1995) and the full urls always come out in one line which works with a click.

Is this a problem with the Outlook etc MS software or is this a problem with other newsreaders as well ?

Outlook Express seems to be OK, the links were clickable, but it also depends how you post, the link may get split at source. It's more of a pain if you use a text newsreader, as I do at work (tin), and have to cut and paste.

As if anyone will want to look at this stuff in more than a few months time? Somehow, I doubt it.FWIW I believe 'makeashorterurl' say they will last indefinitely.

A tinyurl wont wrap as its........well......tiny.

OE and netscape will sometimes have wrap problems.

have you tried that on subsequent references, such as those above?

Another victory for the spellchecker, I see !

Cheers, more reasons to stay with Agent :-)
