You don't need link shorteners on HN. It's (a little) rude to hide the destination you're asking people to click. The link goes to http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/dyson-table-fan-10-air-mu... which is Dyson's fan.

Well snap. Sorry man. It was more of a function of not knowing versus trying to be rude. I actually went out of my way to shorten it to be (what I thought was) courteous, but you make a valid point and I can see how that is actually quite sketchy. I can see how that would be taboo.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
