The URL shortenting market got even more crowded today with the launch of StumbleUpon’s su.pr. Though the list of competitors are long, Su.pr has one thing they don’t have, superior analytics, and added traffic to the link, something content producers, writers and social media gurus (or whatever they’re calling themselves these days) are very hungry for.
The way su.pr works is simple, users type in a URL and has the option to shorten it or post it directly to Twitter or Facebook. Su.pr then tracks the number of clicks the link receives and submits it to the StumbleUpon system which the community is then exposed to and can spread based on the quality of the content. Users can see how many others clicked on the link through Stumble, as well as what times people are clicking. The site even suggests optimal times to post for maximizing traffic based on that person’s community. Users can also schedule tweets based on these times to optimize clicks.

I gave this a try last night and think it's definitely superior to the likes of bit.ly and tinyurl.
For someone who spends way too much time online and loves whoring his links out to the masses, this could be an amazing tool.
