That is a more proper way, but both will work if you use the http://. I guess the <url> is a shortcut or something.

I have no great love for "markdown" - I made this mod per a request- someone who had a forum for programmers I believe wanted markdown support. It's just a matter a preference IMO, I always found myself typing _like this_ or *this* to add emphasis anyway, it's nice to see those really many something in a language like Markdown.

The popular site http://stackoverflow.com uses Markdown in all their "forums." Now I lnow how to use it.
