Lnk.by - Short URLs With A Meaning

Do we need another URL shortener? That depends on how much control you want over the whole process, IE, how much you want to learn about the link you are being directed to. If you wish to have something of a better representation of where it is you are headed all the time, this new site will provide you with an interesting alternative.

Broadly speaking, lnk.by will enable you to shorten any link you want in the same way that services like TinyURL do, but with a twist of its own: the new URL will have a specific header such as WACH, SEE, LSTN or READ. That will let users know more about the place they are setting their browsers to.

This conversion process can be carried out in two different ways: by cutting and pasting the corresponding link into the provided field, or by installing the existing bookmarklet. The latter will come in handy for those that are browsing the web and come across a link they want to share straightaway.

“Short links with meaning.”

Sharing shorter URLs is far easier using solutions like this one, or at least more reliable.
