lilurl's Issues

output should have http://

The output on success should have http:// at the beginning so that wherever this url goes it is easier for more programs to identify it as a web link

stats page

Can we have a stats page that shows how many links have been entered, maybe other cool things like links over time, etc.

Detecting duplicate links

It might be nice to search for previously added links to see if there already is an alias for a particular URL.

lilurl doesn't handle "bad" URLs

By that I am referring to URLs where there is leading or trailing whitespace, or where the user omitted the http://. In the later case it might still make sense to complain sense plenty of URLs we use are https anyway, but the former should be handled.
