A URL shortener written in Go for personal use

Why?

I wanted shorter URLs to garbage on my website.

How?

Written entirely with the go standard library, I took some hints from Git. This shortener generates a SHA-1 hash of the entire URL, and then uses the first 6 characters of the hash to access the URLs.
