Is Goo.gl really the fastest URL shortener? (chart)
- ZeroMinx 16y agoWish they'd included http://urlshorteningservicefortwitter.com/ http://urlshorteningservicefortwitter.com/ - a URL shortener for the rest of us..

- yellow 16y agoGreat read. I feel bad for the Is.gd people. They might've had the most unfortunately timed outage from an extremely rare ISP issue that will never happen again and will forever be labeled as the service that's "not 100% available". Just pretty darn close.
- jonknee 16y agoThey were marked as 99.99% available, that's nothing to feel bad about. "Both Bit.ly and Goo.gl delivered perfect availability, and Is.gd came awfully close."
- bitskits 16y agotl;dr: yes.
- jalada 16y agoNow I know why is.gd feels so fast; it is...for Europe.

- known 16y agoWhy http://goo.gl http://goo.gl DNS pointing to NS1.GOOGLE.COM instead of 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4?
- jonathanjaeger 16y agoI switched to Goo.gl for the time-being, but I like Bit.ly's ability to easily copy URLs quickly.
