Cligs: Another Url Shortener With Awesome Tracking Features

Just a few days back I mentioned about Budurl which is a url shortener with nice tracking features. And then I came across another such tool called Cligs, which proposes to do the same job albeit with more impressive tracking features. The most interesting feature of this tool is that you can create unlimited number of cligs pointing to the same url. Hence if you want to compare traffic to a post from two sources ( ex - Twitter and Plurk ), you can create two different cligs for the same post and then track and analyze the traffic which reaches the post by clicking on those cligs. Cool !
