url shortening gets "*" wrong
url-shortening in the web-ui gets "*" wrong; try http://www.svtea.com/foundations/stor... (the tinyurl link http://tinyurl.com/56a99x only goes up to the T0115, and the *81 ends up in the tweet after it... which appears to work, by accident of how svtea is implemented, but it isn't right...)

Inappropriate?One URL shortener which works in such cases (and with other "difficult" characters such as "#" where TinyURL gets it wrong) is
http://is.gd
- which happens to generate really short URLs (shorter than fromTinyURL!), too.
Thus the is.gd URL for this thread is
http://is.gd/az2q
as opposed to the longer - and incorrect -
http://tinyurl.com/59uv2a
from TinyURL (which ignores #reply_694960 from the long URL).
