MOST shortened URLs are created in the USA and dot US domains get IGNORED! These guys play the patriotic angle to the MAX. They also donate 90% of revenue to CHARITY and users can select a reputable charity from a drop down list every time they create a short URL or let onecent.us pick for them. EVERYTHING is optional and no extra work ! They offer sweeMail © 2010 which is a unique way of building a form email for people to write their congressman or promote products/services/websites, VERY cool, NO ONE ELSE HAS EVEN THOUGHT OF THIS! These guys ROCK and seem to come out with a new nifty twist time and time again. it's only a matter of time before their aggressive marketing and creative add ons grab a decent chunk of the market. And if they ever go public? WHOA.
