ReviewSaurus – Technology Rocks!

Tired of remembering long URLs? Or is it that your browser says ‘Page Cannot Be Displayed’ when you clicked on the long URL your friend had sent you because the URL you received and clicked on was wrapped over more than one line. Here is very easy and quick way to make it short and sweet – use TinyURL.

All you need to do is go to TinyURL and copy the long URL you want to shorten and paste it in the box asking you for your long URL and hit enter. And abracadabra! A small tiny URL appears for you to share it with all your friends. The URL never expires and you get this for FREE!
For example:This big long URLhttp://www.reviewsaurus.com/aol-google-microsoft/in-loving-memory-of-this-page-cannot-be-displayed/ is now: http://tinyurl.com/2k3q3r
Useful isn’t it?

Now all your long URLs become very small. All you need to remember is 6 alpha-numeric characters and suffix it to tinyurl.com and you would be in the page you want.A Tiny URL is not only great for posting on forums, blogs, or communities (helps in micro-blogging), but it also adds an extra layer of anonymity hiding a URL from loggers and you won’t get to see a non-accessible page just because the long URL you posted got wrapped over more than one line. Therefore it is also a default feature of twitter where in you can post more than 140 characters.

Umpteen uses I would say, TinyURL is one real good service. Perhaps you can add how TinyURL was useful to you?
