Once again another short one all. I have developed a custom datatype for use with the Umbraco CMS which generates a shortened version of the page. This datatype send the current page tinyurl.com when the page is saved and saves the returned value as a property.
The value can then be retrieved as in exactly the same way as any other, e.g:

<xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/data[@alias='propertyName']" />

So thats it really, download it here or at my projects page at our.umbraco.org.
