NAME
       WWW::Shorten::Linkz - Perl interface to lin.kz

SYNOPSIS
	 use WWW::Shorten 'Linkz';

	 $short_url = makeashorterlink($long_url);

	 $long_url  = makealongerlink($short_url);
	 $long_url  = makealongerlink($nickname);

DESCRIPTION
       A Perl interface to the web site lin.kz. lin.kz simply maintains a database of long URLs, each of which has a unique identifier.

Functions
   makeashorterlink
       The function "makeashorterlink" will call the lin.kz web site passing it your long URL and will return the shorter (Linkz) version.

       Multiple submissions of the same URL will result in different codes being returned.

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

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

   EXPORT
       makeashorterlink, makealongerlink

SUPPORT, LICENCE, THANKS and SUCH
       See the main WWW::Shorten docs.
