Hey guys,
Setup this new URL Shortening site today at http://www.shrink.in - would appreciate if you could give your feedback regarding the same.

Also, would any of you know where to promote such a site?

Thanks in advance.

In Opera the text on top is too long and goes out from the banner on the right. Otherwise nice, clean site. You could make a longer description of how it works etc, otherwise no chance that you will get SE traffic. No idea where to advertise such site sorry.

very nice site. i think google ads are taking too much role. if u just put google ads above then the site will look more neat

I don't really think too much of the Google ads as my eyes are trained to ignore them

The site style is nice, very simple and it works too. All in all very good. There's not much to say here as the sites so simple and it works, but perhaps you could expand the size of the description font as it is rather small.

Regards,

I like the colors of your site.
More description would be nice

If possible you can add stats (for example how many sites are "shrinked" and used tags)

relatively long loading time on my machine, this may be just my machine, though.

Not a bad idea, the site presentation is not bad either. The coloring of the URL/Tag box doesn't work, it blends in too much while it should stand out more, especially on a laptop screen. Just a few shades darker and you should be fine on that.

Welcome to Shrink.in. Website URLs are long and difficult to remember. Shrink.in allows you to "shrink" your long URLs into small, friendly and persistent links for sharing and remembering. Enter a long URL in the textbox below and a custom tag and click "Shrink" to create a short URL.

This text needs to be more emphasized, it's practically melting into the site, hardly being noticeable, especially since the adsense is very similar.

The "Shrink" box should be closer to the URL/Tag boxes.

Overall:

2/3
