As a joke and a challenge I recently built a URL shortening service that I’ve named Gemer It. It’s a neat little service, it’s quiet simple and I’m not going to make any claims of greatness about it.

As with many of my projects the source code is fully available, I’m exposing this one via an SVN service called beanstalk. This is not generalized code, it’s the exact code (except the database info) that’s on gemerit.com.

So if you’d to like to improve it or add some stuff to the main branch, just give me a shout and I’ll set you up with an account.
