Folks, this is the 21st Century, and it takes like three keystrokes to save people from having to do all that cutting and pasting -- it's beyond me why people keep forwarding messed-up URLs like this!
OK, rant over. Here's a short version of the URL: http://snipurl.com/xwingmodel (I took an extra 10 keystrokes or so to make a nickname rather than leave the cryptic 5 characters I get by default). Please, folks, just go to http://snipurl.com, go to the bottom of the page, and drag "Snip!" to the browser toolbar like it says. Then whenever you're at a page with a yucky-long URL, you can just hit Snip! -- the snipped URL will automatically be put on your clipboard. FTR, I know about http://tinyurl.com but I like SnipURL better. YMMV. Live long and prosper, Kennita On Oct 3, 2007, at 3:07 PM, Carole Parker wrote: > Yes, it's off topic, but it's lots of fun!
