I think it has to do with wrap around when copying a long link. Can
fragment. I use www.tinyurl.com (which I think is the first of the
species).

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.

Hi.
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?
