Check out the URL Shortener T.LY. It's one of the shortest domain that allows you to create short links that I know of.

Tough competitor! I think dro.pm wins by one character because the URIs are shorter, at least on days where I didn't post it to HN. And that can be used for pastes and file hosting directly. The caveat being that it expires; it's meant as something you can write on a whiteboard on a conference or pass over the phone easily without needing to send a random URL to someone via chat, sms, or email or something.
