The mini linkblog javascript on my blog (kyleshank.com) renders links with their original url. Is it possible to have the mini linkblog render shorten links instead (for count keeping and posterity)?

I am really enjoying Radio2 btw.

It looks like theres's a pref that does what you want.

Look in config.radio2.users.kyle.prefs.flLinkBlogUseLongUrl -- set it
false.

If that doesn't work, let me know.

Also, what's the URL of your linkblog feed??

Setting that pref worked!

My linkblog feed: http://s3.amazonaws.com/radio2.kyleshank.com/admin/linkblog.xml

Also my url shortener domain is: shank.in

as in What's shankin?

Stupid but punny.

I hadn't set up the bucket as a website bucket or added a DNS entry for radio2.kyleshank.com for some reason.

I just did those things so that URL should work after some propagation time.

Cool. Now if you want to move it, you can. :-)

I'm subscribed.
