Free permalinks to NYT articles (*even* in the archives)

This would be of interest to bloggers as well as librarians, especially e-reserves folks.

New York Times weblog-safe link generator

“Mark Frauenfelder: Jon Lasser let me know about the NYT Permalink generator, which generates a non-decaying link to New York Times stories. When readers click on one of these links, they don’t have to sign into the NYT site, and they won’t have to pay a fee to read the story, even if it’s in the archives. Link“

Fancy that. I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m wondering how it would work with something like bugmenot, which allows you to see a NYT article without having to register. Anyone?
