[03:07] well, they appear to offer a mix of custom and random, as IA is using https://tiny.cc/musicdonationform and https://tiny.cc/DonationForm [03:09] more info, including on other shorteners too https://www.intelligenteconomist.com/url-shortener-services/ [03:22] *** ivan has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) [03:23] *** ivan has joined #urlteam [03:24] atphoenix: what I need to add it is: https://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=URLTeam#Researching_URL_Shorteners [03:24] I'll quote it here: [03:24] Is there a public method to create a shorturl? If so, create one and include it in the entry. If not, note that in the entry. [03:24] *** svchfoo3 sets mode: +o ivan [03:24] If you were able to create a shorturl, try making a second. Is it sequential? [03:24] Run curl -I http://url.short/validshortcode and see which HTTP status code is returned. Also note whether it returns the destination in the Location: header. [03:24] Run curl -I http://url.short/invalidshortcode and see which HTTP status code is returned. [03:26] Also, check if capitalization matters, by trying a working shortcode with varying capitalization, and seeing if it fails. [03:26] atphoenix: I'd LOVE to add tiny.cc -- but I don't have the time to do the above. If you do... [03:34] *** ivan_ has joined #urlteam [03:36] *** ivan has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 745 seconds) [04:13] Somebody2, https://tiny.cc/ allows for both random and custom results. Anyone can do create a shortened random or custom URL via the homepage. [04:14] http://tiny.cc/17siiz = http://news.google.com [04:14] capitalization DOES matter [04:17] 2 more shortened URLs made in close succession: [04:17] http://tiny.cc/5btiiz http://www.google.com [04:17] http://tiny.cc/yctiiz http://www.youtube.com [04:27] curl -I shows me the same result for valid and invalid shortcodes: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently [04:27] in the browser, the redirect goes to a different location [04:35] I get different results if I put https in front, instead of http [04:37] also note, I was using curl on Win10. I don't know if this curl version behaves different from the version on Linux [05:24] *** ivan_ is now known as ivan [05:29] atphoenix: thanks, that's very useful! [05:29] What are the redirections for http, and https, and valid and invalid? [05:30] Presumably valid redirects to the intended redirection target? [05:30] it's weird that it looks like it's in order, but backwards? [05:30] and please add all the above to the wiki page [05:31] running curl on windows is fine [06:03] i'll need to check more tomorrow [06:03] might have to do with google redirecting to https, while I setup the tiny.cc to http [06:04] i think i see 404 via Chrome Dev view [06:04] for a non-configured url [10:24] *** Smiley has joined #urlteam [11:22] *** prq has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [12:08] *** mtntmnky has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [12:08] *** mtntmnky has joined #urlteam [12:59] *** prq has joined #urlteam [16:37] *** atphoenix has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) [16:40] *** atphoenix has joined #urlteam [16:45] *** atphoenix has quit IRC (Client Quit) [16:45] *** atphoenix has joined #urlteam [16:46] *** atphoenix has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [16:46] *** atphoenix has joined #urlteam [17:58] *** Wingy has quit IRC (The Lounge - https://thelounge.chat) [18:01] *** Wingy has joined #urlteam [18:52] *** Wingy has quit IRC (The Lounge - https://thelounge.chat) [18:53] *** Wingy has joined #urlteam [20:57] *** mtntmnky has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out) [21:17] *** oxguy3 has joined #urlteam [22:15] xhne.ws for China Xinhau News [22:15] Xinhua* [22:58] *** oxguy3 has quit IRC (Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep.
