Just to make it clear, I am not suggesting that people use bit.ly or similar sites to create nice URLs, just to make sure URLs on their sites are nice.

For example, watch the video here: http://techcrunch.com/2009/09/24/video-symantec-shows-the-danger-of-shortened-twitter-links/ The fact that the short URL obfuscates where the intended clicker is going is not a good thing. So, I've changed my mind, I have a long URL not to be "cheap" but to provide security to my readers! :) Željko, your pickiness of URLs could lead smart ‘clickers’ to not click because of the security and virus danger within!
