It depends on the tolerance of the site for long URLs. Too long a URL and the link breaks. I admit I almost always use a tinyURL out of sheer habit from time spent posting in places where long URLs weren't supported.

So...techs...how long a URL can I get away with here?

Re: psst, sassafras (none / 0)

as long as it embedded in a ((a href="url")) html code, it can be as long as you want. It's only if it's copy pasted directly into a diary or comment without any html that it is a problem

In that case, I shall drop the tinyURLs :)
