Providence, RI Apr 13, 2007 -- /prbuzz/ -- dwarfURL takes long Web addresses and shrinks them, making them more manageable. Not only can you shrink a 250 character address down to 16 characters, you can also view how many people have actually clicked on your link. The service launched on Monday April, 2007, and has since received tens of thousands of visitors and has been profiled on popular blogs like LifeHacker.com and has even made del.icio.us’s most popular sites list.

Everyone’s been frustrated by long Web addresses, the kind you get from using Google Maps. For example, they look like this: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=131+Tremont+St.+Boston,+MA+02111&sll=41.878611,-71.383056&sspn=0.161555,0.317574&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=16&om=1&iwloc=addr

Try pasting that in an email to a friend, it will rarely work. Line breaks will mess it up, causing the link not to work and giving the recipient unnecessary frustration. That same big web address can be shrunk down to http://dwarfurl.com/123, which will always work in an email.

The user interface for those creating links on dwarfURL makes it even easier. Its layout is clean and easy to understand and dwarfURL even offers a Firefox browser add-on that will allow you to create shortened URLs on the fly.

So whether you want to send a large link to friends and family via email or instant message, you are a marketer, or just have a bunch of big and ugly URLs, dwarfURL might be a good alternative choice to the well known TinyURL. Oh yea, did we mention that it’s also completely free?

dwarfURL is an internet property of Swift Blue. Swift Blue is an internet developments company that creates free web applications for consumer use.
