If you wrote a simple parameterized snippet (you'd need that extension
too), you could easily set things up so that you have:
<r:snippet name="amazon" id="123456789"> Some Cool book </r:snippet>
its not exactly what you want but it would be > 80% of the way there!

Another Blog related question.
I'm using KDE/Linux. The browser, Konqueror, has 'shorthand' or
'abbreviations', such as 'cpan', 'jeeves', 'google', 'ggmovie', 'wp'
(for wikipedia).
It occurs to me that I'm making a lot of references to Amazon in my
blog. It would be nice to be able to write "<amazon:9620102>" and
have
a reference to that isbn or product id. Even better if it also has my
Associates ID in there as well :-)
There's something like this on Rory Hansen's site
http://www.roryhansen.ca/category/ruby-on-rails/
:-( Shame I'm not a programmer :-(
The Amazon example is clearly useful. I can think of a couple of
others
that are marginal like YouTube and Twitter and Flickr. Perhaps a
'configurable' "url-abbreviation-expander" is the right idea, like in
Konqueror.
