GoCodes redirection plugin

Have you ever needed to give out a URI from a blog post? Sure, you can do it, but the URIs are usually pretty long. And forget about it if you’re saying it over the phone or on a podcast. A Wordpress plugin called GoCodes looks like it may be able to help you out.

By default GoCodes lets you setup redirection URIs that look like /go/whatever/ and have it redirect to /2008/02/22/my-super-post-with-a-really-long-slug/ or whatever you want it to redirect to.

The only problem I have with this plugin is that it looks like it does a 302 temporary redirect instead of a 301 permanent which could be a problem if somebody links to your site via the redirect URI.
