API
Send a POST or GET request to akos.ma with a "url" parameter, with either an "Accept: application/javascript" or "Accept: text/xml" header. You'll get a simple text response with the shortened URL:
$ curl --request GET --header "Accept: application/javascript" http://akos.ma/\?url=http://kosmaczewski.net/2008/08/11/saving-a-failing-project/
http://akos.ma/blzrur
$ _
http://akos.ma/blzrur
$ _
You can also send a "reverse" parameter with the shortened key (not the whole URL, just the key) and you'll get the original URL in return:
$ curl --request GET --header "Accept: text/xml" http://akos.ma/\?reverse=blzrur
