Just wanted to point out that this link is now spam which tries to fire a WhatsApp message on your behalf... I'm assuming this is the URL shortening company up to some hijinks? Google recommends Bit.ly or Ow.ly as alternatives to their previous goo.gl.

Thanks for pointing this out. That sucks. I'll remove it right away.
