Congratulations on the release but I can just discourage people to use URL shorteners. They obfuscate key information, are potentially a security risk as a result, require extra http requests and what happens in the future when you turn the service off? A trend I've never fancied.

On the other hand if you're linking to something you don't control and you need to track stats then use branded URL shorteners.

Sometimes there are valid use cases for things.
