This is a sad day for me. The obscurity of git.io, along with its nested obscurity of the ability to create vanity links, let me grab https://git.io/8. It looks like that'll go away one day, I wonder what will become of the domain itself; it's certainly a six figure property.
I remember there being a form to create a URL (which would get you a random git.io/xxx) but picking your short URL had to go through an API. At least that's how I created mine.
