        It used to always be suggested that directories were linked with a trailing slash.  The thinking there is that is indicates that the server should be looking for a directory not a file and make the look-up faster.  I've never been able to notice or measure any difference though to be honest.

        I would suggest just picking one and sticking to it. Also make sure that one of them redirects cleanly to the other. Which way around you decide to do it is probably less important.
