AliasrApr. 2015
Aliasr is a website that allows users to create and reserve links to Imgur images. It works similar to a URL shortening service but it allows you to create the alias before you have the destination Imgur URL. Aliasr also offers basic statistic tracking such as number of times visited and number of unique visits based on the IP address. I first wrote this in C# using ASP.NET but recently ported it to Node.js and Express.js.
