It is a common SEO technique to remove ‘stop words’ from the slug URL that are considered low priority in the search algorithm. Also, it helps trim the maximum URL length by creating a summary of the post title rather than the full text.
This plugin will remove the stop words from the URL from a defined list you can edit in the options.
A list of predefined stop words are included with the plugin and also available <a href="http://kaneandre.ws/wp-content/uploads/stop-words.txt" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>.

Linkylinkerton adds a column to the table view of all post types that displays slug links that will work for this specific post including ID link and any old slugs. 
Why? I ran into situations where I posted stuff and submitted it to facebook and during submission found an error. Once the error was corrected on FB I found they had cached the URL so I needed to provide a new one to update. 
You can probably think of better ways to use this though.

I wrote this...and I find it useful.  It seems that many places cache URL content (oembeddy stuff) (well...facebook does).  And when I post to FB I always find an error in the excerpt they use
But...when I fix it and reuse the URL, FB wants to use the previous excerpt that it cached.  How to fix?  how about just giving facebook an alternative slug...because I probably played with 4 titles first anyway...and even if I didn't I can use the post ID.
If you do something actually useful with this...I'd be curious to hear about it.
