A URL Shortener Lesson Learned

Wow. I made a big mistake.

Over on Create Consume Delete
’s site, I had been tracking people who clicked on the “Subscribe in iTunes” link with a shortened URL. People click on the link, it goes to an address at the site we were using to shorten the URL, then it forwards to the iTunes link for the show. The shortening service tracks click through rates and it was one big happy ecosystem of traffic forwarding and statistics gathering.

That changed today.

My new show Create Consume Delete

A few weeks ago I launched Create Consume Delete with video guy Chris Cavs. Each week we have a conversation about making media, and do a little teaching as well. The show is meant to talk about three different groups of people.
