What do you think? …

As the number of link grows, wouldn't it be difficult to name new links. In this case the same problem may exists where we still have to remember the links after all.

@daryllman i think custom domain can solve this problem.. I have tried redirecting with custom domain but it does not work always and may be this works
Sonu Jung
@daryllman Obviously, as the number of shortcuts increases, it will become challenging to memorize. Considering how to solve the issue will also be of great help in improving the product. Thanks for your excellent insight!
Daryll Wong
@sonujung I love the product nonetheless, all the best!
Sonu Jung
@daryllman Thank you!
Ryan Hoover
Amazing domain and love the simplicity. I'm curious if this project evolves into something even deeper. What's on the roadmap, @sonujung?
Sonu Jung
@rrhoover We started doing this as a side project to enjoy the process of turning a small idea into a product. Right now, we are in the stage of observing how users understand and use this working prototype. On purpose, we try not to have a long-term roadmap to stay flexible. Personally, I think it would be fun to make this app a kinda workflow automation tool that utilizes the 'https://my.new/xxx/xxx' URL as an API endpoint for individuals.
Ryan Hoover
@sonujung respect that!
Sonu Jung
@rrhoover Hope you give us some ideas to make this app more handy and useful 🥳
Ryan Hoover
@sonujung I do like the simplicity! And I think your idea to expand this into a workflow management tool is interesting. I'll have to noodle on it more. 🤔
Sonu Jung
@rrhoover We'll keep updating! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃🏻 Thanks!

Hey hunters and makers! My friends and I were inspired by Google's '.new' TLD, which allows companies and individual makers to make growth their apps and services' activation by providing action-based URLs to users. We thought it would be fun to flip this concept around users rather than provider by making a tool that allows users to create a shortened URLs directly connected to their favorite actions. We do build this as a side project currently but hope to keep improving better and more useful for you. Please help us by providing feedback and suggesting improvements.

Could be interesting, but I get an error about the path not being valid when I try to add a shortcut! Not much info to go off of in the dialog as to why it isn't working.
Sonu Jung
@ajmcodes Oh! Thank you for telling us. Could you let us know in what circumstances the bug occurred? ping me via team@my.new
ajmcodes
@my @sonujung I sent you an email but I got a 554 Error in Response.
Sonu Jung
If you don’t mind, Can you send me again via iam@sonujung.com plz?
ajmcodes
@my @sonujung iOS, on Safari, When I click the check to confirm creating a new shortcut i get the error about the path not being valid. Best, AJ
Sonu Jung
Thank you for letting us know! We are going to fix that problem asap! I guess It's a simple form validation issue! We missed to patch it! (Type with lower case letters plz! until we fix it)

Sorry if I'm missing it, but are shortened URLs global across all users? Or is it just user-specific somehow?
Sonu Jung
@davidvkimball Its shortened URL is for personal use, not for sharing. Actually, we have plans to provide sharable links, but this has a different purpose than the sharable shorten URLs provided by bit.ly or others.
David V. Kimball
@sonujung Understood! Thanks for clarifying. 👍
ABIR HS
Love the thought. I am curious to know what is the purpose of the product? is it the same thing as bookmark a website or I am missing something. Would like to understand the product better.
Sonu Jung
@abir_hs You can make personal shortened URLs for creating something with your favorite cloud apps. For example, You can map the action composing a mail with Gmail to 'my.new/mail'. Can you give us some feedback on how I can explain this concept easier and more intuitive?
ABIR HS
@sonujung I see. I get it.
Chris Messina
I built something very similar to this for Alfred: But this is clever — I like the potential social aspect!
Sonu Jung
@chrismessina Oh, Chris! We are glad to see one of the Real-Life Example of several options we are considering for our next milestone. In fact, We're using Command E instead of Alfred, so We just found out that there's a nice addon like this, and we love it! We are currently observing the gap between our users' expectations and how to use our product. We believe that this process will help us to refine our hypotheses more precisely and to execute quickly. We don't know the direction of improvement we'll deliver, but we're excited to get inspired by The Chris Messina. Thank you!
