It's not just about short URLs. Several services, such as Flickr (and IIRC Dropbox), allow you to generate links which allow the recipient of the link to do something (view an album, download a file) without authenticating. This is of course not at all secure, however it is very convenient for sharing stuff with people who don't have an account with the site.
