Use a URL shortener on the links. #3

The links are pretty long sometimes, so I think it would be a good idea to use something like Google's URL shortening service to make links shorter.

Perhaps only shorten them if they go past a certain length?

I think that 110 characters is a good limiting factor URL shortening. If it's greater than 110 characters, then it should be shortened.
