I found that some URLs I entered in Trean did not work properly when accessed.
Investigating, I found that the URL is silently truncated at around  
250 chars when you save a bookmark.

The cause:
The field bookmark_url in the trean_bookmarks DB table is of type  
VARCHAR(255). Changing to VARCHAR(8192) fixed the problem for me. Note  
that MySQL prior to version 5.0 has a maximum VARCHAR lengths of 255,  
so you might want to use the text type instead.
