FON Get Simple http://www.fon.gs/

"FON Gets Simple, so we can all get simple. With FON GET SIMPLE you can convert all of those long, impossible-to-remember URLs into short, easy-to-remember URLs that make your Internet travels simple."

How about a service like Twitzer (http://shorttext.com/twitzer.aspx) which lets you shorten the text itself so that it can be posted on services like Twitter?

I see http://is.gd/ on twitter all the time...

[jimhenryutc.edu]

I like http://*****.com/ It allows me to make my own keyword
JIM

[jimhenryutc.edu]

I didn't preview my last comment. The site is http://*****.com - JIM

[jimhenryutc.edu]

Uhhh. The site is http colon slash slash ***** dot com JIM

[jimhenryutc.edu]

The site name is these 5 letters D O I O P put together

LookLeap http://lookleap.com/ has been my favorite for years. No need to sign up.

Click a provided bookmarklet on your browser and you'll have these clickable options for the shortened URL: [discuss] [open] [cached] [tiny url] [email]. Statistics are found in [cached], the short url is found in [tiny url], and [email] creates an email message containing the url.

I use xrl.us for shortening

[nandayoxx]

I'm using 123url.de. Found this a couple of days ago. Havent found somethin that is easier to remember.. just the .de is new for me. But anyway, I'd recommend this service

[hrkull]

I'm using http://www.dwarfurl.com/ . This service offers a firefox add-on which makes URL-shortening very simple

[joemelon]

The go.to service (http://www.go.to) offers subdomains, just like notlong, but has much better domains available. It also offers email forwarding.

[adkiller2k7]

what about xrl.in ? thats the shortest urls possible!

[thatch01]

I ran across http://relink.me recently. Its pretty cool cause you can choose a 'type' of link. For example, there are Colors, Words, Numbers, Short, etc. that will give you links like http://relink.me/redblue which makes it super easy to speak out loud.

[Peter-Software-Marketer]

With http://klikdeal.com you can both choose the URL of your link and you get tracking stats for how many has clicked on your link.

[mbenedict]

I've been using http://qwix.com, which has really short URLs but also safety/anti-phishing features built in (and link preview enabled by default.)

[pak152]

I prefer using shrinkster.com since it allows you to track how many times the url has been clicked.

[MichDdot]

You forgot some of the best short url services feature wise.

Cligs at http://cli.gs has the best tracking of any short url service plus api seolinks screenshots ubiquity & bookmarklets.

Adjix at http://adjix.com has screenshots plus twitter intergration api & custom domain urls & bookmarklets. Adjix is also a monetized system allowing topic targeted topframe links or clean no ad links.

Poprl at http://poprl.com has stats screenshots & a digg like rankings page plus api & bookmarklets.

[jimboco]

Or, how about http://pt2.me for a nice simple one with an API
