you can use mine
Code:
http://Shortener.netMy favorite "TinyURL" site is Cli.gs. The great thing about it is that you make an account and you have private access to detailed traffic stats (chart of hits by date, geo-loc map, referrer log, SE indexes that contain the Cli.gs URL, social media that contains your Cli.gs) for your Cli.gs. Since I'm new, I can't post an URL, but the entire URL is Cli.gs

You can make your own, there is an open source script for this 
http://lilurl.sourceforge.net/
btw, made one using a free sub domain as a test, it works : http://short.us.to

You can make your own script, just make a form to submit your url, save that url into your database along with the short name ("ht*p://site.com/veryveryveryveryveryverylongurl.php?with=some&vars=lol","1");
Now all you need is a landing page, lets say you redirect all your short urls to h*tp://site.com/tiny.php?var=x (where x is the short name).
Next do a query to select the url assigned to the shortname "1" and do a redirect.
So, ht*p://site.com/veryveryveryveryveryverylongurl.php?with=some&vars=lol becomes h*tp://site.com/tiny.php?var=1
Also you can use modrewrite in the .htaccess to make something even smaller like h*tp://site.com/tiny/x.html
