Bit.ly Pro announced
- mrshoe 17y agoAll problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection I see two big features here: 1) Recognizable URLs, and 2) analytics. Do all HTTP requests need to go through bit.ly to achieve these features? Nope. http://nytimes.com http://nytimes.com is a pretty recognizable URL, if you ask me. I'm sure their server logs provide all the analytics they need as well. Someone should "cut out the middleman" and invent a world wide web that doesn't require URL shorteners. Oh wait, Tim Berners-Lee already did that.
- jasonlbaptiste 17y agoSomeone (or google) just create a google analytics plugin that has the detailed level of tracking of bit.ly with the social analytics+real time goodness. I think all the resources are there in the server logs, right?
- pghnDictator 17y agoRETARDED. Yeah, go ahead bury my comment. Make it disappear. Like the 20 other times it has been done. I can always get a new IP to express my opinion. And this kind of BS is politically correctly RETARDED
- pghnDictator 17y agoBy the way. Just download http://github.com/jacobian/django-shorturls http://github.com/jacobian/django-shorturls, Install it on your server and you can completely ignore this retarded way to monetize a retarded service.
