Omniurl.tk Rules
« on: March 13, 2011, 04:56:36 pm »
I think that in OmnomIRC our link to the rules is bit.ly and I am in favour of having links in that super cool omniurl.tk :)

I think it looks better, what do you think?

maybe, but omniurl.tk doesn't support that, does it?  It only works for <omniurl.tk>/thread/message, right?

That's wrong:

We have omniurl.tk/en for logs :)

So it would seem.  Well, I guess I'm for it.  bit.ly is still smaller, though.

If I wanted something smaller, I'd use goo.gl but I want something customized.

Well, it's not overly small like goo.gl and bit.ly, but it does the job, IMHO. I like it.

And yeah, it works for:

omniurl.tk/<thread>/<message>
omniurl.tk/en
omniurl.tk/fr

Maybe Netham could make an URL shortening service for other Omnimaga-related links.

I like the idea of using omniurl.tk for all our important links :D

Maybe have omniurl.tk redirect to the home page?

Nah not the home page. I would prefer people still use omnimaga.org.  Also on the forums and other forums, unless you need short links I would suggest using full links, to not hurt Google ranking.

I just added a poll so the admins have somewhat a source of the user's opinions.

Oh yeah, that's a good point. Omnimaga's already on top for many things, though, so omniurl might just tag along?

EDIT: Scout: Agree with what (in the poll)?

You could use a short help page on how to use omniurl.tk on the main page. Also, for Google rankings, I think it depends of the redirect type.

What I thought about was an Omniurl page where people can type a number or two to get to a download/post/topic, and a link to Omni below.

Yeah, good idea, you could paste a topic/post/download URL and it'll spit out a shortened URL. Would be nice.

Now my question is, most people seem to agree, will you (admins) change it?
