Show HN: I hacked git.io to shorten any url

For those that are wondering, it's a secondary URL redirecting service hosted on GitHub Pages.

  http://google.com ->
  http://git.io/hvTe ->
  http://sauravtom.github.io/4gitiohackRepo?u=http://google.com ->
  http://google.com

Probably should have just sent a notice to security@github.com rather than exploiting it in production.

Great! It's working: http://git.io/hvlF How long can this hack survive? :)

Nicely done! Wonder if GitHub will keep it up :)

For what the hell this is useful?

Nice Hack
