2pl.us

2plus is a service for shortening the URLs (web links).

A lot of sites like Twitter have a limit on the number of characters you can have in your messages. If you want to share a link on such services that have a character limit, you can use 2pl to shorten your URLs.

Using 2plus you can shorten a URL like this -

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Googleplex&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=29.496064,79.101563&ie=UTF8&latlng=37422347,-122084999,13883056401095221724&ei=w4X1Sa3WDpeAuwOzz-TXBw&cd=1
(206 characters long)

to this – http://2pl.us/1 (15 characters long)

Short URL also come in handy when you have to send them in email. Very often long URLs are broken across lines in some email clients. So your recipient wont be able to view the URL by clicking on it. 2plus solves this problem.

You can also hide the actual URL from your audience. Like an affiliate link.
