Hi OWN Team - and also Marketing Team - guys,
I've had something on my mind lately. I'm wondering if I should consult with Jan-Simon and Sascha directly, and -marketing list is the right place to post this topic or not, but I considered we have to share this topic.
As you can see, 2 shortened URLs are used in Weekly News ATM.

IMHO, we shouldn't use tinyurl in Wiki pages.
There is not tiniest reason to use them :-) [http://extremely-3-rows-long-URL Description] will give just Description on the screen. So tinyurl is just habit from other places where is not possible to use links, with unnecessary overhead to go to tiny-website, create URL and paste in the wiki page, when it was possible to paste original directly and then just give description. BTW, existing tinies should be replaced with originals. -- Regards, Rajko http://news.opensuse.org/category/people-of-opensuse/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
