			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In <a href="http://gadgetopia.com/post/6346">Benefits of Plain English <span class="caps">URL</span>s</a>, the folks at Gadgetopia have added more fuel for the fire of why you should use <a href="http://simpledream.net/2008/03/20/beautiful-urls/">beautiful <span class="caps">URL</span>s</a>. For me, any two of the many reasons should enough to convince the maker or your <span class="caps">CMS</span> or weblog software to make nice <span class="caps">URL</span>s a default in their setup.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>When picking <span class="caps">URL</span>s, we envison [sic] someone at the client&#8217;s firm reading the <span class="caps">URL</span> to someone over the phone. How easy is it going to be?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I especially like this idea of reading someone the <span class="caps">URL</span> over the phone and asking them to write it down, remember it, or type as you read. Great <span class="caps">URL</span> design and implementation makes this interaction painless and pleasant.</p>
