Unlike Google’s URL shortener, goo.gl, you don’t need a toolbar or a firefox extension to shorten YouTube’s movie URL. Simply replace “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=” with “http://youtu.be/”.
So for example, instead of watching my SteelSeries Xai gaming mouse unboxing at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVBXxweBPE0, you can use http://youtu.be/HVBXxweBPE0 instead!
So I guess Flickr will be the next in having its own URL shortener?
