How many TinyUrlz do you manage? At the current moment we have 1045 TinyURLz in our database. How do I use the service? What are keywords? Simple, enter the URL you want hidden/shorter and as a bonus, you may add a 'keyword' that will rewrite the URL to whatever you may want to call it. http://www.tinyurlz.com/tinyurlz uses a keyword tinyurlz. http://www.tinyurlz.com/nskKl uses the short link only. Please note that if the name is already taken, as is the case with the above URLz, the name will be appended automatically with random characters, example: tinyurlz.com/tinyurlz1ab2 Why use the service? You may want to protect the location to a download, for example, a depositfile upload link, or you may have a 57 character URL link, you can shorten this to only a few numbers and letters. Or be devious and hide referral links you might want to spread someplace.
