Then why the fuck is he bitching about not being able to give the whole URL as a clickable link? We're not a bunch of women, we're men, and when men have problems, we don't bitch and carp and moan about them, we solve them. A woman gets home at the end of the day and complains her feet hurt. She doesn't want to solve the problem, she just wants to bitch about it, otherwise she'd go to comfortable shoes.
2. tinyurl is the Lycos of URL shorteners. Sure, some people might still remember it, but everyone's moved on!
And, pray tell, what have they moved on to? Make a shorter link? :). I don't trust those two letter code ones, there's one called 'bit.ly' which means it's in the Libya country domain, if there's ever a problem and Libya gets re-declared an evil country, your ownership of a link becomes useless because you can't spend money in a country declared by the U.S. Government to be evil like North Korea or Cuba unless you get State Department permission in advance, so your links now become worthless.
