      <description><![CDATA[<p>
<i>Evan Sims</i>, a recent convert from Flickr to SmugMug, has whipped up a little something to help make getting to those SmugMug unfriendly URLs a little bit easier - <a href="http://smugurl.com/">SmugUrl</a>:
</p>
<blockquote>
one aspect I didn't like was their URL scheme. They have good reasons for doing it, and I can't fault them for trying to maintain the privacy and security of their users. Heck, I applaud them for it. Still, I like my URLs pretty, and more importantly search engine friendly. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands and build <a href="http://smugurl.com/">SmugURL</a>.
</blockquote>
<p>
His example replaces this - <a href="http://evansims.smugmug.com/gallery/4717671_Ywtjp#279209234_a2ALu">http://evansims.smugmug.com/gallery/4717671_Ywtjp#279209234_a2ALu</a> - with this - <a href="http://smugurl.com/evansims/myst_online">http://smugurl.com/evansims/myst_online</a>...much more readable. He's even created a little bookmarklet you can drop into your bookmarks to make creating the URLs quick and easy. Check out <a href="http://smugurl.com/">for more</a>.
