A very interesting article from Adam Darowski on transforming URLs into usable pieces of the user interface.

I had run into the link for this article but didn't get around to read it until now. Funny thing is, I _knew_ last.fm would be mentioned as good example. One thing he doesn't mention, though, is how you can make URIs more user-centric and not folder-centric. For example, last.fm/user/andr3 (user) vs last.fm/users/andr3 (folder). URIs are the new command lines. :) (ps: o teu preview nao tah a mostrar breaklines...)

(ops... o comentário também ficou mesmo sem eles. Corrigo então... a preview tá "fiel".. preferia era que ficassem com break lines como eu as pus ;) )
