Just FYI: Hacker News already shortens links, no need to pass them through a 3rd party service. I personally prefer seeing a readable domain name before clicking (as I'm sure many others do as well).

You can also emit the title: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1491946008/ works fine.
The point is, I don't care whether amzn.com really belongs to amazon.com or not. I want to check a domain quickly without having to research that kind of stuff.
