I created this a year or so ago but recently made updates and I thought people might like to know that it exists.
I made this to easily send links or text to someone else verbally, like over the phone or over voice chat (which is what I made it for). The goal is to be able to tell the link to someone else without being ambiguous or needing to spell it out, so I grabbed the words off a Grade 5 level dictionary. I understand that the domain itself doesn’t qualify but I’m trying to get a better domain.
I hope others find it useful!
- _puk 14y agoYou have an API for this? I imagine this could be of use to "the other link shorteners". It's a great idea, and with reference to scaling, perhaps short well know quotes / sentences could work.
- _chendo_ 14y agoNot just yet, need to do more thinking about how I'd like it to work with regards to preventing abuse etc. I'd like to keep the link size down because one of the use cases is for say a lecturer giving a link to class. Keeping it short lets the lecturer easily write it on the board, and also faster to type.
