Project 'Shortner'
Idea
Since I moved this blog's technical basis to Blogofile and therefore my whole interaction with it, to the commandline (and the browser of course), it felt clunky and useless to go to a website, log in, fill in some values, copy&paste a part of the result, just to get the URL of a just written blog post shortened.
And since I wanted to ramp up my skills on providing REST-inspired APIs with django and I wanted to know how to write a nice CLI UI with python, this clunky url-shortening workflow seemed like the perfect victim to be optimized in favor of learning those two issues.
Notes
Look at the following Twitter CLI clients, for ways how to do python cli clients:
