Firefox URL Addons

Post by Bigaldoc »

Just an FYI about two Firefox addons. For some time now I've been using an addon called Copy URL here in The Lounge which puts a URL in a link form that's handy and descriptive:

I also have used, for a long time, Tiny URL, to create shotcuts to an address that are much shorter than the original. This is convenient in emails and places like Facebook where very long URLs can become a problem. Tiny URL and other like it, require that you COPY and paste their shorter version in the destination. Here's an addon the does that in one pass, so all you have to do is paste it where needed. So far today it's working just fine:
