None! Why would you even consider using one for? If it's not for print and memorable, I see no use for one at all. And if you are really going to print it and want it to be memorable, it should rather be one under your control, so let's hope you already picked a memorable domain, now let's put your software freedom to use and make your CMS allow you to create a memorable URL. Sorry, but "Twitter restricts me to 140 characters" doesn't cut it. Just put markup language to use and <a href="https://domain.com/my-url-could-be-as-long-as-I-like";>click here</a>. The only good excuse I ever had for a URL shortener is a choice of technology combination or misuse, like one is browsing on a desktop and want to send a message using a mobile containing something they just browsed. There should not be any restrictions on using the desktop itself to share that URL with someone, or even yourself on your mobile. There is where I find the problem. Please, please, give me a very good reason to use a URL shortener at all. I am very likely missing something.
