There was talk of using [https://goo.gl/](https://goo.gl/) for shortening links.

[Here is some discussion about link shortening.](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-should-short-links-be-supported-in-discourse/15339)

I don’t see that example anywhere here…And I don’t see an option for that in my Discourse admin (I am looking under settings/posting). I wonder if it got yanked for some reason.
