Many URL Shorteners Are Slow and Unreliable
Dutch web monitoring company WatchMouse has done a thorough analysis of uptime and performance of 14 major URL shortening services, with quite disheartening results.As it turns out, only two of these (goo.gl and twt.tl) have had a perfect uptime record between 02/14/2010 and 03/16/2010
- Luckily I use goo.gl more and more.
It seems to be very reliable.
Buzz it!
