   Absolutely, NOT useless.  The little bit.ly link lets one get to the   
   full text of the posting, via your archive it looks like.  So, it's   
   almost like a news reader that shows only headers.  It may not be the   
   most elegant interface, but it's not bad for a "10-minute" hack.   
      
   More importantly, now when someone says somthing interesting here I   
   can "retweet" the link and show others what we talk about.   
      
   Yes, this is a very fine thing indeed.  Bravo!   
   [Yes, the bit.ly link redirects to the message's page in the   
   archive at compilers.iecc.com. I give Twitter the real link,   
   it does the bit.ly stuff. -John]
