Want to use Twitter? Shorten that URL

If you use Twitter to share links, you will find that shortening the URL of a website is very helpful.  Shortened URLs are very helpful for other reasons, too - for example, when designing an online lesson or sharing a link in email.


Websites that provide the service are very easy to use.  Copy and paste the long URL to obtain a short one. A few websites that provide that service are noted below.  Did I miss your favorite site?  Please share others :-)
QR codes have so many uses! Because marketers often use them, some sites require a registration and/or small fees for the service.  Some of the sites also include analytics.  The sites listed above are all free.
