Well the old nyturl.com was an url shortener. The new one is about lingerie. |

At the beginning with a few big shorteners everyone started to say "Make your own shortener for your own domain, so that when the big shortener fails your URLs still work". |

It think that was a mistake, we should have let everyone use the big shorteners |

I think techcrunch is right, it was never an official project and now they use nyti.ms (which is based on bit.ly's "build your own shortener" bullshit) and simply decided that they don't need the old one anymore |
