Tinyurl

I’ve yet to use it, but tinyurl looks very useful. You can submit a url such as http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=426940&Y=541132&A=Y&Z=1 and register it a short form such as http://tinyurl.com/jz258, which is more convenient to put in email, etc. Try it. This is free, instant, and apparently permanent. Via a newsletter from our vice-provost; I expect the rest of the world knew about this anyway.
