So, my mom just asked me for some help because someone had posted a URL in a comment on a blog post that she simply could not get to work – the URL was too long, had some strange characters in it, etc. so I told her to send the user to urlTea, have them put in the URL and give her the shorter version so there would be less chance the comment system would mangle the URL – I show it to her and she’s like “Oh! this is like that other site, tinyurl

Yepp, my mom knows how to use tinyurl and urltea, my job is done here. :)
