Most of the surferz are familiar with URL shortener. I hope you can remember my post Security risk of shortened URLs and even this post is about sharing a short URL with privacy.
In case if you are looking for privacy for your short URLs, I’m going to introduce a URL shortener which gives you an added layer of privacy to your links. Follow these steps to share a URL semi-secretly,
- Visit http://trick.ly/
- Enter the URL
- Type a password for privacy | Making of Strong Password
- Keep a clue/hint for your password
- Hit, Shorten button.
That’s it. Your secured short URL is ready to share with others. Only the persons know the password can open your link, to make it easy for your friends/group/community, you can keep a question as a clue to the password. Thus, helps your group of people to access it easily. Anyhow, I don’t think I’m going to use this service because I never share any secret URLs on sociable sites. However, I hope Trick.ly can help some of the surferz to short URLs with a low level of privacy. ![]()
