Question: Easy redirects

PandemicSoul — Sat, 02 Dec 2006 19:35:06 -0800

Anyone know that website that made redirects easy?

A month or two ago, I visited a new Web2.0-ish site that made it easy to create redirects by just putting in your original URL and the URL you want to redirect to.

For the life of me, I can't find it anymore. Any ideas?

Do you mean .htaccess style rewrite rules, "Location: " style headers, meta tag redirects or something else?

Not tinyurl or elfurl. It was a site that generated your htaccess for you, if I remember correctly.

Darn... no. Those weren't it, either -- getting close, though. If I remember correctly, it let you define the end link to whatever naming you wanted.

Get Shorty, maybe.

I don't think this is the same site I'm thinking of -- the other site had a brown background, and this name doesn't seem familiar.

Nonetheless, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much iconomy!

Sidepath?

YES! Sidepath! Too bad it costs $11, when Get Shorty does the same thing for free.
