I have no idea, and honestly, I don't know how I found it. I'll post a link once I dig it up off my laptop. I cleaned off my desktop yesterday and threw a ton of things into an "Everything" folder and there are like 3 URL shorteners lol.

tr.im are meant to be open sourcing their code at some point. What you'll need to do though is this:
Form with box for URL, custom name, password. Generate a unique short code if there's not a custom one specified. Insert the URL, short code/custom name and password. When visited, query for the short term, select the URL. Record any stats you want to do. If it's password protected redirect them to a page to enter password then if it's correct redirect them to the full URL. If it's not password protected redirect them to the full URL. I can't imagine that'd need more than a few hundred lines of code, depending on how many other features you add. The reason I haven't made one myself is it's not going to be able to compete with the other big players in URL shorteners and I wouldn't be able to take it far enough to make it worth bothering with.

Correct me if I'm wrong, didn't Google release something like this? I might be confusing it with something else, but who knows..
