Re: The Top 10 Best Technical Documentation Sites of 2010

There are many people who dislike long links in emails,  just as you dislike the shortened 
ones. 

Often I will provide both the original link and a "tinyurl" so the person knows what the source 
is, but I guess I'm just silly enough to think if an email is posted to a moderated list, that the 
link is likely harmless.
