There are so many URL Shortener since Twitter became popular. The 140 character limitation makes a nightmare when someone want to share a long URL. So URL Shortener has been a solution. Twitter also have URL Shortener name http://t.co.
So, there are two option when you want to have your own URL Shortener, write it from scratch or just use (and or modify) open source URL Shortener out there. There are so many open source URL Shortener. And i’m using YOURLS.
The hardest part is searching for a short domain which is available. 😀
So, this is my URL Shortener: http://t.mbe.ms (spelled TEMBEMS or maybe same meaning with chubby in english.. err…CMIIW). But it’s not public. 🙂
hehehe..nice ndan!
saya sendiri make goo.gl, tapi kalo pengen url shortener sendiri, saya kok malah pengen coding dewe, *kurangkerjaan* –bukane bermaksud reinvent the wheel, tapi pengen aja mempelajari bagaimana pemendekan url yg paling efektif 😀
btw, kok iso entuk domain apik massssss… 😀
@chipz: saya awalnya juga kepikiran untuk membuat sendiri. tapi karena pengen cepat jadi, ya sementara pake ini dulu tak masalah.. 🙂
domainnya dapet dari godaddy.. :))
makasih mas, saya baru tau kalau ada yang opens source.
jadi pengen bikin shortener sendiri, kayaknya menarik 🙂
