Another Uncool URL

March 22, 2003

Tim Bray has discovered another outbreak of the "Uncool URL" disease:

You notice I haven't included a pointer to it because these morons have set [the BBC's Reporters' Log] up so it gets a new URL every day!
[ Tim Bray - Hey BBC, Get a Clue! ]

Is this turning into an epidemic?

Update: Tim Bray reports that the BBC now use a fixed (ie "Cool") URL for the Reporter's Log. Now all we need are true permalinks to each story on the page, as Dave Winer points out. Posted by: Jorgen Thelin on March 28, 2003 11:17 PM
