FEXR: Shorten your Uniform Resource Locator

FEXRIs your URL too long? I know, we’re so use to getting all that spam telling us we’re too short, but sometimes short[er] is better. No really!

 

If your URL is about as long as the name of this Welsh Village:
llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

..then you may want to try the shorter version: fexr.com/y2c

I suppose this could be useful if you have to use your iPhone to type in a long domain name, but then you could also just bookmark it. In the end, you may find that the long name is actually much easier to remember than the short.

Unfortunately, it’s pretty difficult to tell which of the following is for SensoryMetrics, Facebook or my Flickr :

fexr.com/y2r | fexr.com/y22 | fexr.com/y2y
