Why would I need this?
Updated Jul 13, 2008 by vermaabh...@gmail.com

There are already plenty of URL compressors out there : http://tinyurl.com, http://is.gd, ...

All of them take a long version of the url and convert it into something like abc123.

For example, the link to my orkut profile is : http://www.orkut.co.in/Profile.aspx?uid=672178716383780103 . TinyURL converts it into http://tinyurl.com/5acvss .

One the other hand, in my application, you can choose your own (perhaps more meaningful) shortened version.

Continuing with the example, I have compressed http://www.orkut.co.in/Profile.aspx?uid=672178716383780103 it to http://cyb3r.in/ork .

I think you should stress, that your application will give custom URLs like http://example.com/ork, when it is deployed at example.com
