The default Google+ profile page’s URL is too clumsy, by no means you can easily remember it and tell your friends. That’s why many many people have worked out a large number of Google Plus URL shorteners to fill this gap. This is a summary of those I found and tried:
gplus.to = gplus.to/[your chosen username]
plus.ly = plus.ly/[your chosen username]
plusya.com = plusya.com/[your chosen username]
topl.us = topl.us/[your chosen username]
goplus.us = goplus.us/[your chosen username]
gplusnick.com = gplusnick.com/[your chosen username]
gplus.name = gplus.name/[your chosen username]
myplus.name = myplus.name/[your chosen username]
So which one should I use? Well, most of them are quite similar so I think you can simply choose whichever that has a pretty shortened URL. Some URL shorteners provide additional features, like Plusya.com which is also a social statistics tracker. Besides, you can also use traditional URL shorteners like bit.ly and goo.gl to create a shortened link to your Google+ profile page.
I’m sure that there are a lot more out there that I have never heard of. If you know anything not listed above, send it in please! I want to keep this resources list updated for Google+ users’ reference.
