 Hi,
A number of people have had a problem with the link to the audio stream recorder
link I posted yesterday. The problem is, the article may go away within a day or
two, so it may not be accessible for much longer.
I have a feeling that the problem was the length of the link and the line break,
so I thought I'd pass on this little hint.
If you are posting or e-mailing a long link -- and some links can go on for four
or five lines, rather than deal with line breaks, etc, pay a visit to this site:
http://tinyurl.com

 Copy your super-long URL into the window provided, and it will return a, well,
the name says it all, tiny URL. This URL will be fully functional in place of
your original.
So, my original URL was:

http://www.boston.com/business/technology/articles/2004/11/01/free_for_the_liste
ning____and_legal/

Putting it in TinyURL yields:

http://tinyurl.com/5ymom

I think you will find that it works perfectly.
Cheers,
Ed
