Have you ever sent someone a URL link but it ended up getting split into two lines because it was too long?   Or maybe it triggered the recipient’s spam catcher causing your e-mail to end up in their spam folder.

How about when you tried to leave a URL in a blog comment, but it was too long for the entire address to show?

Today’s Featured Friday (yeah, I know it’s Saturday) gives you the solution to that problem - Snipurl.

This free tool is simple to use.  Just enter the long URL in the box on the left, enter any optional information desired in the right, and click Snip It!

Presto!  You have a short URL that actually takes you to the long URL.

Do you have a favorite URL snipping tool?
