Yet another URL shortener written in Go

Primary LanguageGo

gorter

A URL shortenerenhancer written Go. Probably the 18 billionth one, but tonight I decided to write some Golang out of nowhere and figured this is a simple (albeit bandwagonny) place to start. Added some RESTful API consumption and math/rand fiddling to make it more unique and fun for myself. Still, nothing more than a quut little side project to learn some Go. Honestly, love it so far. Will be back for more.
