Hey. I have known about this for a while but never used it, and to be honest, never really understood the purpose. Maybe I'm weird but when I see people post links like this I always get kind of annoyed that I can't immediately read the actual URL before going to the link. Is there a purpose to this beyond some vague aesthetics? Something to do with a character limit for posting, say on Twitter? Just chiming in out of curiosity mostly.

Paste the original link into the edit field at http://bit.ly. It'll spit out a shortened link you can copy and distribute, and when the recipients click on the shortened link it goes to the original URL. Is this what you're asking?
