[09:54] *** zhongfu has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [09:54] *** zhongfu has joined #urlteam [09:55] Non-sequential, six-character codes of [a-zA-Z0-9], it seems. [09:55] Two examples: http://x.vu/iqmMso http://x.vu/OeTmCf [09:57] 2,115,148 URLs in their database according to the homepage [10:02] Hmm. Since there are ~52 billion possible short codes, we probably can't save any significant amount in three days. Shall we try contacting the owner instead? [10:18] *** phuzion has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out) [10:55] JAA: Enter a URL and press the "Go Xtreme" button [10:57] Yeah. You can also choose your own code (without paying). [10:59] *** phuzion has joined #urlteam [10:59] It's only 3 characters [11:00] Right, we could grab those. [11:00] Actually, those do cost money. [11:01] The 1-3-character long ones do, yes. But you can also pick a custom tag (of 4 or more characters) for free if you go to the "Advanced Options".

[20:28] hook54321: The auto-generated codes are certainly case-sensitive, but it's possible that the self-assigned codes aren't. [20:29] ah, you're right. [20:46] *** treyo has joined #urlteam [20:52] as someone that works on a project correlated with a url shortener that is being indexed, is there a way to provide url mappings and get the project to stop being crawled manually? [20:56] treyo: Absolutely. The best way would probably be an official archival via 301works.org, but if that's out of question, I'm sure we can figure out something else. [20:56] Somebody2: ping ^ [20:56] *** Jonison has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [20:58] Ok. The Shortener is still active, but we may be able to make something work with that. We will look into it. There are various mechanisms that may prevent us from doing that directly. Otherwise, would a Api endpoint that just dumps out all the valid mappings be useful? [20:59] its for go.usa.gov, sometimes there are weird rules on us pushing data out to places, but I could script the push to that after the data is public anyway [20:59] since its all 'available' anyway [21:00] is this the best place to contact the team in general? [21:01] I'm not sure our current scripts support something like that, but if not, it can certainly be done without too much effort. [21:01] Yes, it is. [21:02] ok. thanks :) I'll hopefully be able to just get a nightly/weekly archive pushed out. Long story, but gov questions when there is sustained cache misses all the time. [21:02] so though valid... easier to just make it sotp [21:03] and its all technically foia-able... so might as well just publish it in some easier format.
