You did bring up some good points on avoiding a few scenarios that could bring up problems. Especially dealing with the medical industry, it is always good to be on the safe side. One other thing I would add is to get a secure certificate in any places where patient information is gathered.

I found it through google though, but still need to read the conclusions (of course I skipped the methods and results - I'm not geeky enough for that :)) Very cool ;)

]]> Comment on Tr.im is gone – Who Will Be Your Next URL Shortener In The Sea of Fishes by Jay at Qii http://www.crazylikethat.com/blog/2009/08/who-will-be-your-next-url-shortener/comment-page-1/#comment-289 Jay at Qii Sun, 18 Oct 2009 00:41:07 +0000 http://www.crazylikethat.com/blog/?p=361#comment-289 Thank you for listing the URL shortener service at QiCute.com. I appreciate your concern listed above regarding registration and email addresses. The service has the advantage of being able to save and later edit your chosen URL redirect, so it requires some sort of registration in the system. Also, the email registration tends to keep spammers OUT of this URL shortener system. I have only rarely sent out an email in the past year, and all were through Aweber, from which it is easy to unsubscribe. For simple, quick and unimportant URL shortening, another URL shrinker might be better, but for permanent short URLs that you can later edit, QiCute is a nice option. Finally, our URL shortener is part of a group of other web sites that endeavor to maintain our good reputation, so giving out email addresses is simply "unthinkable". Again, thank you.

For those of you who have had the honor of working with Dan, you know he is seldom seen without a cup of coffee in his hand, even when hobbling through the office on crutches.
