Offtopic: What's the point of using tinyurl outside of twitter? I would understand if you had your own vanity shortener (it would be obnoxius, but at least it would make some kind of sense).

On small screens, sometimes long urls wrap and break? I was first introed to url shorteners to get around breakage, long before I ever heard of twitter.

HN shortens display of long URLs automatically and shorteners are bad long term so please don't use them here.

I don't think I ever have. But thank you for the reminder. I knew that about HN but did not recall it.
