Why? What possible value does an obfuscated and shortened URL
offer anyone?

If anything, most users would get more value out of something like

  www.myrailsapp.com/post/631-what-were-they-thinking

which at least gives the user (as well as search engines!) *some*
meta-information about the content of the resource...

..and you could google `rails friendly urls` for implementation examples
to study :-)
