We&#39;ve implemented a "tinyurl" type system into the BIS servers so we can create URL&#39;s that are more userfriendly & memorable, this system will be used for all FlashNews.

Here are some examples:

http://www.bistudio.com/flashnews/80 = FlashNews No. 80

(All previous FlashNews can be found simply by changing the number from 01 - 80).

http://www.bistudio.com/flashnews/archive/2005 = FlashNews Archive: 2005

(Archives for 2004 & 2006 can be found simply by changing the end number).
