I keep a "throw away" email address specifically to do such things. Just get a Gmail, Yahoo, or other free account, open with a fake name if you like, and register away.

It is not the idea of using a "throw away" e-mail that I object to, it is the hubris of the organization requesting registration to start with. And just what does the organization behind the Tiny URL service do with all of those original URLs? If you can not deal with the original direct URL, tough. You may have noticed if you do a deal of internet shopping that there is a quiet movement to let you purchase from an internet site with out "registering". You are giving them a billing, shipping, and credit card number. Thy usually request an e-mail to send the confirmation to but that is not a requirement. change is coming. For the computer initiated, check out google-analytics. I do wonder what happened to the funeral recordings. Trashed I suspect.
