<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>The URI that tinyurl redirects
to is mangled. <br>
<br>
Incidentally, can I point out that link shorteners like tinyurl are (IMHO) a
bad idea? They create a single point of failure, for example if the tinyurl
server goes down or runs out of money, or a database failure, then all links
are lost. Someone looking at the archives of this list in 5 years time after
the next dot-com crash might find these links useless. They can harbour malware
and spam - the user doesn't know where the link is going to take them. If the
tinyurl server/s are hacked, all hell could break loose.<br>
<br>
But most of all, I want to see where the link will take me.<br>
<br>
If you have a long URL to send in an email, you can usually prevent it being
chopped by putting it inside angle brackets &lt;&gt; e.g. &lt;<a
href="http://some.really.long/url/goes.here.that.would.span.across.two.or.more.lines.html">http://some.really.long/url/goes.here.that.would.span.across.two.or.more.lines.html</a>&gt;
- most email clients will interpret that without the line breaks.<br>

<p>I like the idea behind this . introducing Moodle with Lego. I might use this
at the start of 2009 with our staff briefing or just show the following YouTube
video. Just need to nail down a bigger version so I can read the smaller text
(or read it out as I show it to our staff)<br>
