Are shorter URLS better for SEO?

Many people reduce their URLs. But as per my understanding it develops overhead of additional redirection, other can not guess about the target article with their url, and it should be less friendly for "inurl: ..." kind search.

Should I shorten the URLs of my sites?

Is there any sort of advantage with short URLs besides the fact that they take less characters in anchor tags on the page (helpful for website loading)?
