Web Tip:Make Your Long URL’s Shorter with dwarfURL
This type of shortening the url is a cool option to avoid long url's while sending a mail or putting a url link on the forums,blogs,websites etc or to some friend or
something. I usually use tinyurl which is my favorite.
I tried some real big url's and it worked out fine. Still its the same thing , i mean the way it reduces the pain of those long url's , the style of shortening is similar to tinyurl. DwarfUrl provides a unique id for everybody (obviously) for every long url .
For example : Long Url : Move cursor here to see the long url.
This loong url is made short like this .:http://dwarfurl.com/281dd
They even have their own Firefox Extension(plugin).
Note : At present their extension doesn't automatically add itself to your toolbar.You must goto View->Toolbars->Customize to add it to one of your toolbars. Go get the dwarfURL Firefox plugin here.
Happy shortening !
