The main reason I use catchy.link is to quickly make a short, memorable, and pronounceable link I can share with people in my group, class, meeting, conference, or chat room. I appreciate that I can change the destination for a link after I've created it, or even let the link expire. And doing so without using passwords is a plus.

For example, the Show HN you're reading now is at: http://catchy.link/ShowHN/CatchyLink

A few features of interest to HN readers:

* emphasis on memorable URLS

* quick creation and URL management without creating an account

* no passwords (email is used when verification is necessary)

* links are temporary (from 1 day to 1 year) but you can extend them

* written in Go and running on Google App Engine

I hope others find catchy.link as useful as I do. Thanks, y'all, for any feedback, and for not trying to break it.
