About

This is link reformatter (possibly a shortener). You can use it to turn ugly links into either informative ones or short ones. Instead of just making them smaller, we aim to make them gooder by allowing you to use a category and/or incorporate information from the page into the link -- e.g. title, headings, etc.

To use, enter an ugly link into our page, perhaps select and category, and then choose between short or descriptive. Short links look like this:

and descriptive links look like this; we pull the new link name from the page itself (this one has a category, too):

http://urlu.ms/schools/University-of-Colorado-at-Boulder

This page was proudly composed with emacs; perhaps you'd like to try another editor?
