The URL for this is lopurl.us and has been registered since Feb 17 2009. I see that yours however was registered April 24, 2009. I don't mind the fact that yours is up there, it doesn't bother me. I just thought i'd let you know that the name has already been used. Henry Hi,

The affiliate trick makes some sense, if you are into that. I would just put the honest url there and let people do what they want. The url contains information. Why do you think Google puts the url on every search result. They don't waste screen space. The url text is valuable info, losing it is not a good strategy. <abbr><em>John Hunter’s last blog post..<a href="http://engineering.curiouscatblog.net/2009/04/25/iron-breathing-species-isolated-in-antarctic-for-millions-of-years/" rel="nofollow">Iron-breathing Species Isolated in Antarctic for Millions of Years</a></abbr></em> The only instance where short urls make any sense in my opinion is Twitter (which does it automatically), due to the 140 character limit on messages.
