=head1 NAME
WWW::Shorten::NotLong - Perl interface to notlong.com
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use WWW::Shorten 'NotLong';
$short_url = makeashorterlink($long_url);
$short_url = makeashorterlink($long_url, nickname => $nickname);
($short_url,$password) = makeashorterlink($long_url);
($short_url,$password) = makeashorterlink($long_url, nickname => $nickname);
$long_url = makealongerlink($short_url);
$long_url = makealongerlink($nickname);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
A Perl interface to the web site notlong.com. Notlong.com simply maintains
a database of long URLs, each of which has a unique identifier.
The function C will call the notlong.com web site passing it
your long URL and will return the shorter (notlong) version. If used in a
list context, then it will return both the notlong URL and the password.
If you pass a nickname, the notlong service will use your provided
(alpha-numeric) string as the unique identifier, provided that it has
not already been assigned previously.
The function C does the reverse. C
will accept as an argument either the full notlong URL or just the
notlong identifier/nickname.
If anything goes wrong, then either function will return C.
Note that notlong.com, unlike TinyURL and MakeAShorterLink, returns a
unique code for every submission.
