    I'm using the REST API. Here's the command:

    curl -s --data-urlencode "long_url=`pbpaste`" http://metamark.net/api/rest/simple | pbcopy

    pbcopy/pbpaste are input/output for the OSX clipboard- tried to follow the python example.

    Here's the trace:

    == Info: About to connect() to metamark.net port 80 (#0)

    metamark allows recursive redirects
    I just noticed this when adding a ghetto curl-based clipboard one-liner to a hotkey. If I accidentally shorten what's on my clipboard more than once, I get a new URL that redirects to the metamark URL. Do this more than once and you get a string of redirects. I know this is a case of user error, but doesn't it seem to make sense to either refuse to shorten a metamark url or to simply return the same url?

    An example: http://xrl.us/or9bt
