It was announced on the Stack Exchange Podcast episode #23 (at 1:05:26) that Stack Exchange has its own URL shortener, http://s.tk/.

Users can't create their own, they can only use the ones that are built-in.

What shortened URLs are available through it?

This is a community-maintained list of publicly-known s.tk URLs. Please note that several links have broken or been removed in the past. Long-term stability is not guaranteed.

Note: The SE team announced on October 6, 2017 that no more s.tk URLs will be created.

    Is this list still up-to-date?

    Links are added as they are discovered. So there's a possibility that there exists sites that have links but are not listed. If you find any, feel free to add to the list.

    There was s.tk/denver, but that's obsolete now so I won't bother adding it.

    Do we really need ones for Jeff's and Joel's profiles?

  • @Cole I can't imagine anyone using them but it's not like there is a negative cost to having them there.

    @Amicable No! You see, It's a conspiracy! They're slowly but surely implanting doctrines in our minds! It's subtle things like these that make it hard to pick up on! Don't you get it!? They are promoting themselves as the leaders! They're plotting to take over! We can't have that! You need to be on the lookout to notice things like this!

  • s.tk/blender is currently going to a private staff Google Hangout.

    s.tk/meta should now point to Meta.SE, no?

    Why is /hyphen how they choose to refer to Expert Exchange? Why not /arch-nemesis or /anti-christ, or /arch-enemy or /rival?

    @ArtOfWarfare Because it's none of those things? SE won by a knockout. Today's rival would be Quora. (Also, "hyphen" refers to what happens if it's omitted from the domain name: expertsexchange.com)

    @2mkgz: That's hilarious - I've never noticed that before.

  • @JeremyBanks the first, s.tk, no longer works.

    @ike Updated the list. Several of the links are gone -- some seem pretty arbitrary. Heh. I guess these aren't to be relied on.

    @JeremyBanks could we have s.tk/alcohol to point to Beer, Wine, & Spirits? s.tk/beer is already taken (by Homebrewing) and it's causing a little confusion; would be great if we could tell people a shortened URL to use for the other site. Thanks.
