Custom Tag

It's one thing to shorten your url to be as short as possible, but it's also pretty cool to be able to make your short link relevant to the visitor.

You could send a link out to your friends with a generic: http://xr.com/gp8 or you could send them a more descriptive link: http://xr.com/lame-costumes

It's simple -- when you are at www.xr.com and you've pasted in the url that you want to shorten, if you click "shorten your url" then we'll give you an ultra short url. However, if you put in a custom tag in the "customize" box, then we'll create your own custom xr.com link.

Small bragging point -- we had this before tinyurl.com did. Small humble point -- we weren't the first.
