NAME
       WWW::Shorten::Tinylink - Perl interface to Tinylink.com

SYNOPSIS
	 # No appropriate solution

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

       Unfortunately, at some point in the middle of 2008, Tinylink.com stopped returning useable URLs and therefore this module is now
       deprecated.

Functions
   makeashorterlink
       The function "makeashorterlink" will call the Tinylink.com web site passing it your long URL and will return the shorter (tinylink)
       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 Tinylink URL or just the
       Tinylink identifier/nickname.

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

   EXPORT
       makeashorterlink, makealongerlink

SUPPORT, LICENCE, THANKS and SUCH
