Why? What possible value does an obfuscated and shortened URL offer anyone? If anything, most users would get more value out of something like www.myrailsapp.com/post/631-what-were-they-thinking which at least gives the user (as well as search engines!) *some* meta-information about the content of the resource... > Plus, it's a excuse to learn how it works :). ..and you could google `rails friendly urls` for implementation examples to study :-) FWIW, -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ [email protected] twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
