Bitly

I am always amazed at all the different things that a person can find on the internet. While doing research on social media I came across Bityl: http://bit.ly/

At this site you can type in a long link like: 
http://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2011/04/20/woman-tells-dog-to-bark-more-softly.aspx 
- hit shorten and it will condense it down to
bit.ly/f0zo9b
for easier sharing. Apparently you are also able to track how many times that link is then clicked by anyone. It is a great tool for business to use sharing links without having to take up six lines while at the same time seeing if that particular link is of interest to their followers/customers. 

By the way that link is a cute video of a dog being told to bark more softly.
