Sure it can be. What if I want the people I shared the link with to see my take on an article or something of the sort.
Thinking in absolutes is never a good thing. Maybe -you- could never do anything good with it.

I tend to do that at the time I share the link. Like: "Hey... check out this site. Could be cool... or evil ~ http://snip.ly/"
a) You'd just write your take next to the link, instead of hiding it behind. Your example is far-fetched.
b) This is obviously meant for ads. (And the examples on their landing page make that perfectly clear.)
Quote: "You can essentially advertise on any website for free!"
You don't know what you're talking about. If I follow someone on twitter, I want to know what they are up to. If someone has an event or product, or something else they think is relevant to the article, then I want to know.
B) That's cool that some of the uses are advertising, but I'm not going to. I'm not trying to sell some product.
Isn't this an absolute though?
