URL Shortener
URL shortening is a web technique that takes a
URL and makes it shorter and more readable. Most
often, the shortened URL relies on a unique code that is a combination of upper- and lower-case letters and numbers.
For example: https://bit.ly/32DDrrT
. The problem with these codes is that they are error-prone
when either typing them into a browser or relaying them by voice. For example, 3, 2, big D, big D, little R, little R, big T.
Far less error-prone — easier to relay and easier to type — are unique codes that are entirely numeric, for example:
https://go.wiz4.us/6491-3847-5745
.
Finite Wisdom has developed its own URL shortener that uses all-numeric codes. As a security precaution,
the shortener will utilize Google's Safe Browsing API
in order to verify that the URL being shortened isn't malicious. Try it out below.
