I think the logical consistent URL format of Domino is a good one. My only objection is the UNID nonsense which makes the URL MASSIVE and it often gets destroyed when sent over the mail system. From a support perspective it's good too. When a user tells you about a URL that doesn't work you know pretty quickly where the problem is.
On the performance question raised by Kamal, this is a holy war unto itself. The important point is EVERY WEB SERVER IS DIFFERENT. Some serve fast static pages but suck at dynamic content, some serve images quickly but cannot perform database transactions effectively, and so on. When you do a performance comparison it should be against identical applications. You find also that the differences are very small. If a user has to wait even 1 second extra for a page load, over a dialup connection this is irrelevant. Hmmm I think this may be the topic of a future blarticle....
