Have you seen people use URL shorteners on sites/blogs? I can't imagine the use for that as the analytics that you can get from your site (via onsite tool or third party script) can offer you that data.

URL shorteners do break the internet a bit which is why I think they're fantastic for shorter-lived shorter-breadth online communicating (Twitter, Facebook, IM, etc) and don't make a whole lot of sense for, like you pointed out, blogs and websites.

I didn't mean to be controversial. Just thought it was interesting. I use URL Shorteners for Twitter/Facebook; but, tend to stay away from them on sites/blogs. My reasoning... while unscientific, is that I think they could potentially detract from SEO. I don't know that for a fact; but, I'd rather be safe than sorry... just my two cents. Wow.
