PicsOrLinks.com - Linking Made Easy

Pictures or links? Or how about both? Picsorlinks.com is here to try and sort out a common nag that keeps coming up when one uses the internet on a daily basis. Basically, what they do is simplify links by creating new links to their site that automatically redirect you to where the original link was intended to go to. For example, you go on a Google search and you end up with a URL that is long enough to circumnavigate the globe a couple of times. Suddenly you decide that the page you landed on is wicked, and you want to share it with some friends on MSN, however the URL is so long that it can’t even be sent on one go at the text box. This is not only annoying buy also greatly dysfunctional. To sort this out, all you have to do is go to picsorlinks.com where you may input the original URL, and in a matter of seconds you will end up with a pretty and short URL that you may share with everyone.
