Restores URL-shortening functionality:
URLs over 17 characters long are automatically reassigned a shortened URL.
Physical Web clients will still display the original URL when discovered.
Uses is.gd, instead of the now defunct goo.gl.
NOTE: Internet connection is required to assign short URLs.
Some minor adjustments have also been made to improve performance.
