    I've started making a URL shortener and I'm wondering what you would like to have in yours!
    Something you never seen before.
    I need ideas because I want to make this one special, if you want to see it click in my sig and go to demos.

    A little stat center if you register where you can see how many hits it's got :)

    Since i started a new site of mine, i would like to suggest that the link should be based on a keyword of users choice, followed by random numbers and not alphabets.

    Good Luck
