The biggest, outside of twitter, has to be the method of emailing enormous html links to someone.
Last I tried, I could send an email formatted in HTML, where:
<a href="http://my.crazy.long.url.gz">See this</a>
didn't take that much space, and could be read by any half-decent email client. Even alpine can do it.
