I think he means this:
http://shar.es/eAgJV (your link)
as opposed to:

One blog I use insists that all links use tinyurl.com to conserve space![ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Wayne, I'm the Original Complainer.
As the sibling reply points out, the link you posted did NOT "go to"
an information page: it went to an URL-shortening service. So you essentially
locked up the actual URL you intended to communicate inside a proprietary box.
This is a practice that has come up repeatedly here, and IIRC the general
consensus is to publish only unobscured URLs.
Regarding my "blog pimping" comment: I have occasionally found myself
wondering whether you were trying to use trivial posts here to promote your
personal blog, and in my annoyance over the obscured URL I included that
poorly-considered ad hominem in my rant. On reflection I suppose there's nothing
fundamentally wrong with including links to your blog, so I hereby apologize for
the snotty tone I exhibited, and retract my characterization of you.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
