The Short URL Webtool allows you to take a long URL and create a short one that points to it.
Short URLs are great for print or emailing or displaying on a Web page. If the long URL changes, simply update it in the Toolbox; no need to reprint marketing material or resend emails.
It also has a reporting feature that lets you know when the link has been clicked.
