100+ URL Shorteners for Firefox - Easy Access
Streamline Your Links with the Shorten URL Firefox Extension
Do you frequently utilize URL shortening services and require a streamlined method for accessing them? The Shorten URL extension for Firefox provides convenient access to over 100 different services.
Available Services
A comprehensive selection of URL shortening options is available through this extension. Users will find a wide array of choices to suit their needs.
Options Upon installation, configuring the extension's options is recommended. This allows you to designate your preferred URL shortening service from the provided drop-down menu.
Specifically, three services cater to mp3 files. Furthermore, you can enable icon displays within “Context Menus”, automate the copying of newly generated “Shortened URLs” to your clipboard, or directly share them on micro-blogging platforms.
It’s important to note that only one “non-mp3” service can be active simultaneously.
Using the Shorten URL Extension
A “Toolbar Button” is provided for easy access, but the extension is best utilized through the “Context Menus”. Right-clicking anywhere on a webpage allows you to generate a “Shortened URL” for that specific page.
“Shortened URLs” can also be created for content within frames or iframes.
Right-clicking on links within webpages offers another method for creating “Shortened URLs”.
The extension also supports generating “Shortened URLs” for images embedded within webpages.
If you have a bookmark requiring a shorter link, simply right-click on it to create a new “Shortened URL”.
Creating a “Shortened URL” from an open tab is equally straightforward.
Once a “Shortened URL” is generated, it will automatically appear in the “Address Bar” and, if selected, be copied to your clipboard for immediate use.
Conclusion For those who regularly employ URL shortening services, the Shorten URL extension offers a significant time-saving solution, allowing for a more efficient browsing experience.
