Since Firefox 3 (search as you type now in the address bar, it finds urls or page titles you've previously been to, even if you type something mid-url), I've been apending &map=Durham to the permalink url.<br>I haven't been using that for a link, but it means next time I want to view the same area I just have to type in map=Durham to bring back the address. Maybe title= would be more suitable.<br>

What would be fantastic is urls of this kind :<br>
<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/london/" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/london/</a><br>
...for a lot of medium and big cities.<br>
<br>
The reason is to encourage people to use these URLs for their own use on<br>
their pages. With the current URLs to OSM (with lat and lon), the<br>
robots can't know that a URL links to london or berlin or lyon.<br>
