node-shorty

A simple node.js package that will generate tinyurl/bit.ly style URL paths given number.

This is useful if your webapp needs to generate shortened URLs. Just keep track of the number of shortened URLs generated and pass the counter into url_encode. Then, pass an encoded path into url_decode to find out the counter that was used to generate the URL path.
