How would you like a CakePHP plugin that lets you create your own custom tinyurl’s for advertising and social services? I just published the plugin which you can download as of tonight. I’m quite proud of this plugin as I think it adds great value to a website and was rather easy to write. I hope to write a plugin for Joomla and Wordpress soon (provided they do not exist). I did not see it for CakePHP so figured I’d give it a run. All in all took just a few hours. Not too bad. Hope you all find it useful.
BTW, this plugin is in no way affiliated with TinyUrl or any other such website. It is coded only by myself and is released under the same license as CakePHP. You can modify and alter as you see fit.

explain why i can’t just use the Router control. there’s no need for this plugin at all
The Router is definately an option. And, if you have an application with 10 or so pages then you can certainly go about that way. However, F-E-E-D-Z along with many other applications have thousands of pages. You going to write hundreds or thousands of Router::connect arrays? Have fun with that!
