Question

Sigiloso · Accepted Answer

Take the URL and run it through a hash algorithm like md5 that can take arbitrary length input string and convert it to a fixed length hash value. Append the hash value to tinyurl like "http://tinyurl.com/".

Sigiloso · Answer

And you'll obviously need to make sure your webserver then expands the "http://tinyurl,com/" to the full URL  by looking up some database.
