TinyUrl is one of the very first small url remapping sites since the very beginning. And all the sudden after reading about a story on Centernetworks on Twitter/TinyUrl, I decided to find out which url is the very first at TinyUrl. And indeed, the first url can be found at http://tinyurl.com/1. So being a Digg fan, I decided to submit TinyUrl first url to Digg as a story, but when I tried to do it, I got the url blocked saying TinyUrl is in violation of Digg’s term of service, what a bummer! I have no idea why Digg is blocking TinyUrl, perhaps they are coming up with something similar or perhaps they are tracking urls? Here’s some images (hosted on SimpleBucket, of course) for your enjoyment. Click through on the images on to see my notes.
