Indeed and especially with many shorteners not being maintained and going down. That being said, this one is not meant to be an actual URL shortener, but rather, a cool hack and it is not meant to be used widely or used in production.

Fair enough, I'm all for neat hacks. Link shorteners in general make me concerned since I've encountered more than a few dead ones. It's frustrating to know that the content you're trying to access may very well still be alive, but the only links you have to it are dead because somebody got bored of running the shortener used.
