Subject: [CR]Dealing with long URL's

All,

I'd like to offer up a solution to posting long URL's that get word-wrapped and become unusable without doing a lot of cut & paste.

There is a web site called Tiny URL. You plug in a long URL link and it returns a short easy to use one. It even automatically pastes the short URL to your clipboard so all you have to do is point and paste in your message.

Here's the link.
