NAME

       WWW::Shorten::TinyURL - Perl interface to tinyurl.com

SYNOPSIS

         use WWW::Shorten::TinyURL;
         use WWW::Shorten 'TinyURL';

         $short_url = makeashorterlink($long_url);

         $long_url  = makealongerlink($short_url);

DESCRIPTION

       A Perl interface to the web site tinyurl.com.  TinyURL simply maintains a database of long
       URLs, each of which has a unique identifier.

Functions

   makeashorterlink
       The function "makeashorterlink" will call the TinyURL web site passing it your long URL
       and will return the shorter TinyURL version.

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

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

   EXPORT
       makeashorterlink, makealongerlink
