URL shortener to voice for Clubhouse - shorten.club Yes, yes, yes, and yes, we know it doesn't convert links into the voice. shorten.club converts links or note buckets into a readable 6-digit number, but why? What can't you do in Clubhouse? Now, you all know what you can do with Clubhouse, it's time to focus on what can't you do in Clubhouse. Clubhouse is a great platform to discuss ideas, contact your friends, organize brainstorming sessions or ask questions to known-people, yet it is very limited on other things such as resource sharing such as links, notes, buckets of ideas, movies, songs, etc. Why can't you use other URL shorteners? Whether you are on desktop or mobile, URL shorteners work pretty well, but when it comes to sharing the shortened URL by voice/by spelling it, it can easily become a nightmare. Since Clubhouse is a voice-driven platform, you would want your shortened URL to be pronounced easily which is not possible with a mix of uppercase/lowercase letters and digits. On top of it, Clubhouse is an international platform, there are people from everywhere which means different languages and accents, etc. Even if people speak the same language, it is hard to spell a shortened URL one by one. How did we solve it? As you may know, every bank on the planet sends 6-8 digit numbers as SMS when it needs your authentication or 2FA works the same way, or quiz platform Kahoot.it gives 8-digit numbers to join a session. These all inspired us to make a URL shortener that converts buckets/lists into 6-digit numbers. In that way, you can easily gather the PIN and access the resources with it. Currently, you can create buckets of links or notes. You can add, update, and delete those resources even after you share them with your audience. Examples; - A bucket of movies to watch: https://shorten.club/665292 - A bucket of resources for Saas Startups: https://shorten.club/191626 We would love to hear your feedback.

Hi, the idea is very nice! @omergulenn Would it be possible to add links, that would redirect to pages? There is a space for it, and I tried to add links but they behaved as text. Also, I clicked on the X sign to delete, but i could not delete items from the list.

@omergulenn also, I tried to copy the text but I could not, because the text moved to the left hand side when I clicked on it. I believe people would find it bothersome if they can't copy the text, it means that they would need to retype it again in the browser, and that can be bothersome when the list is long. Hope that you can fix that somehow, because otherwise I love the idea and I would use it for my rooms! :)

@omergulenn the last thing, is when I added more than 5 items, the Add button went to the bottom of the page, and reached the text "Ask for a shorten.club PIN". When I clicked on the add button, it clicked on the link instead and went to the main page and I lost the list. It is impossible to add more than 5 items this way, can you please correct that as well.
