    301 redirects so we have one URL

    I am definitely leaning your way because we have noticed a drop in Google placement with the custom URLs. We would need to figure out what the link back to GWB would be.

    Gist Support

    I wish I could put gists from github.com in my blogposts. I need the ability to use script tags to do so though.
