not really a bug.. just include the subfolder...

In the final page after shortening, it is showing *www.crankup.net/?cool5

instead of *www.crankup.net/curl/?cool5

btw nice effort mate

and why not like *www.crankup.net/curl/cool5

Hey thanks for your replies...

I am using wordpress for my blog and I have made some changes to index.php of wordpress so *www.crankup.net/?cool5 should work

Its just an experiment... :) if every one likes it I can move it to w new server with very small URl :)

Thank u so much guys

The primary url will be www.crankup.net... I think u can use curl to shorten your blog's specific post like

*manishshare.blogspot.com/2008/01/reliance-power-ipo-listing-date.html

I edited the index.php file to redirect but for some reason this does not work :(

actually I was planning to start a url redirection service... i have a short domain name LLL.in (L - some letter :p ) and the following scripts interested me and they are popular too:

*www.urlgap.com $5 script

*www.hido.net/projects/phurl/ - free script :D

there are lots of other clone scripts available too but I dunno whether they are reliable or secure :D

No you can access curl using *curl.in

now this is smaller than tiny url :)
