One-Day Project: ctxt.us - url shortener with context

I know, just what the world needs, another URL shortener. Still, I was tired of being confronted with links on twitter like: "Coolest thing ever - <a href="http://short.url/12345" rel="nofollow">http://short.url/12345</a>. So in order to add a little context to my links, I created my own shortener. Give it a shot and let me know what you think.

One-Day Project, that's kind of the trend these days! We also built a URL Shortener recently in a day, with the One Day App event. The challenge is fun, and makes you narrow your features down to something doable in a day. Good work.

Great idea. Just tried it. You should consider adding metrics to it down the line, but I bet you that you might find an audience for it.<p>Gonna throw it on my blog to give it some cool Twitter points. :D
