That would be sweet.
My only issue with shorteners is that you don't know what you're
clicking on. Not clicking on unknown links has been drilled in to me
since day 1 of Internet usage, so to suddenly experience systems which
are designed to obfuscate is foreign to me. I guess we have twitter to
blame for this.
