While there are many URL-shortening websites out there, you may want to give a try to CUT.TW,
which was strictly designed to be used by Twitter users.
URL-shortening is a very simple, and quite old idea. However, CUT.TW adds some new, cool features
and also requires you to verify your Twitter credentials, so you and other CUT.TW & Twitter users can be
sure that provided links are legimit, and spam-free.
Here is a list of some features you may find interesting:
  • CUT.TW works only for Twitters.
  • This means that all shortened links came from Twitter users, not spammers or Internet bots.
    It also means that there are less short links generated and published out there. Less links = shorter links, and that means each CUT.TW link uses less characters.
  • CUT.TW shows which Twitter user clicked your link, not only anonymously when it happened.
  • If user clicks your link and is also using CUT.TW, his or her Twittername will be saved in your links' statistics page, so you can see which friends follow your links.
  • CUT.TW gives out your own, super-short subdomain!
  • You can simply create short links under http://cut.tw/, but you can also use your own subdomain that is short and unique for each registered user, like http://ab.cut.tw/. This way there are even more short-links combinations available for each individual subdomain!
    If you don't need to short an URL, you can use http://Your_Twitter_Name.cut.tw/ anyways to keep a track of who is clicking in your links.
  • CUT.TW lets you setup password-gates, hide target URLs, and do a lot more!
  • Sometimes you want to twitt a link that only your friends can follow. CUT.TW lets you set up a password before users can pass CUT.TW gate and access any resource that is hidden behind it. You can even type hints for your friends, so they can guess what password is in use!
    You can also hide a final URL you are shortening, so whoever clicks on your short CUT.TW link will end up seing a page behind it, without knowing its original URL address, and therefore won't be able to access that page again without going through your shortened link.
    There are many other features, like you can mark a link as inaproperiate, spam, or abuse, or compare who else shortened the same page, but to see all features you have to logon and see yourself!
    CUT.TW comes to you free of any charges. There are no hidden fees, no banners, no spyware, no blah blah blah.
    Service provided without warranty of any kind. CUT.TW cannot be held liable for redirected links' content and/or action.
