WatchersNET.UrlShorty - Short Your URL & Share

First Release of my new Module and Service

This Module allows users to shorten a long URL and share it, this is a similiar service to web services like bit.ly, tinyurl.com and others. It also contains a Web Service (to be used as an API for creating / retrieving shortened URLs).

This was Converted from a Sourceforge Project URL Shortener for ASP.NET by glenarma

For example, you can turn this link:

http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Forums/tabid/795/forumid/112/threadid/369948/scope/posts/Default.aspx

Into this link:

my-dnn.de/Nn6c7

Features

  • Shrinking of Urls
  • Full Url History Page for Users with Edit Rights for the Module
  • Registered Users can see their Url History
  • Info of how many Users have Clicked the URL
  • Custom 404 Error Page for DotNetNuke
  • Web Service (to be used as an API for creating / retrieving shortened URLs)

Online Demo

Module is available for free on CodePlex

This is very very interesting.  I have been looking for a module like this one for some time now (I would be willing to pay for it actually).  Two questions: 1) half of my links have Bulgarian - would Cyrillic incoming characters be handled? 2) I am not sure whether this question would even make sense but - is the long-to-short link reference table kept in the DNN database?

1. Yes this will work, you can test it on my Site http://my-dnn.de/UrlShorty.aspx

2. Yes of course both links the shortened and orignal long url are stored in the db.
