A BETTER TinyURL!

[Cyber]

Well I decided to make a "TinyURL"-like service. The only twist is that instead of 0x1.info/8c8, it gives you 8c8.0x1.info. Yeah, that's right, subdomains!

Also, it is 4 characters shorter than TinyURL.com and 3 characters shorter than tinurl.com (owned by tinyurl.com). Pretty nice, no?

Anyway, you can try it out (and I pretty much guarentee it's as nice/nicer than TinyURL) at:
http://www.0x1.info

Here is a sample link that directs you to this thread: http://3.0x1.info

P.S. - there are no ads on the site

Nice offer. But my browser couldnt find the site

nice, but what exactly is 0x1???

 

[Cyber]

What is 0x1...the shortest cool-sounding .info I could get...(besides it goes well with the "icosihexafy" theme!)

how do u make a service like this?
Oh, and gj man!!

 

[Cyber]

A little php programming and wildcard DNS...

YOU CAN NOW ACCESS YOUR SHORT URL FROM EITHER 0X1.INFO OR R4N.INFO

example: your short url is "y.0x1.info". you can now access it from "y.r4n.info" too. (r4n is a little nicer than 0x1)

[Cyber]

Yeah, my AIM is jbgx. If I'm not around, leave a message...

Cool, a nice and short domain. How long have you been around or is a new service?

 

[Cyber]

New service...since I had the free .infos, I might as well put em to use.

Ahh cool, it's a nice domain (better than tinyURL) :classic2:
