Google URL Shortener at goog.gl review
Google URL Shortener at goo.gl is a smart product which could be used to shorten URLs.Despite the latest abuse of this feature by some malware , this service continues to be a very useful service.You could use it to shorten large URLs and use it for Tweeting, Facebooking and all the rest of it.
URL shortening is a technique on the World Wide Web in which a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) may be made substantially shorter in length and still direct to the required page. This is achieved by using an HTTP Redirect on a domain name that is short, which links to the web page that has a long URL.
The question is why Goog.gl?There exists tons of other URL Shortener services doing almost the same.But Goog.gl has a great advantage of not being blacklisted on many sites due to security reasons.The image file added here proves this fact.
Also the awesome Dashboard not helps us know not only the previously shortened but a complete set of details.
