NAME

       WWW::Shorten::5gp - Shorten URLs using <http://5.gp>

SYNOPSIS

           use strict;
           use warnings;

           use WWW::Shorten::5gp;
           # use WWW::Shorten '5gp';  # or, this way

           my $short_url = makeashorterlink('http://www.foo.com/some/long/url');
           my $long_url  = makealongerlink($short_url);

DESCRIPTION

       A Perl interface to the web site <http://5.gp>. The service simply maintains a database of
       long URLs, each of which has a unique identifier.

FUNCTIONS

   makeashorterlink
       The function "makeashorterlink" will call the <http://5gp> web site passing it your long
       URL and will return the shorter version.

   makealongerlink
       The function "makealongerlink" does the reverse. "makealongerlink" will accept as an
       argument either the full URL or just the identifier.

       If anything goes wrong, then either function will return "undef".
