New Inconvenient Links

I found out more about the new, inconvenient LJ links.

Your journal is now a part of a database cluster. There is how ALL links will be at LJ in the future, slowly we are converting over ALL LJs to this new DB method, this will make the site faster, better, stronger...

The DB cluster requires more information in order to work, thus the longer URL.

There is no way to shorten it, sorry.

I replied asking about the line wrap and the stupid 3D s. We'll see.
