Short description
Shrl - url shortener to reduce a long link with a click of a button. Trim urls copied to the clipboard to make them shorter.
Full summary

A super simple Chrome extension for shortening URLs.

Extension that sits in your toolbar and lets you shorten the current tab's URL. The shortened URL comes back highlighted and ready to be copied.

No registration required.

Copy Clipper monitors the clipboard, and if it sees something that can be simplified it does. It's mostly used for urls.

It makes youtube urls short, amazon urls short, strips off the GA tracking parameters that reader/feedburner puts on urls and is driven by regexp search/replace.

If it ever clips something you don't want clipped, you can click Undo in the notification window and it will restore the original value.

It didn't have to be a chrome extension, but I like the easy UI for an options panel, and the auto updating from the chrome store is neat.

It's a bit like this extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/kcpnkledgcbobhkgimpbmejgockkplob
