NAME ^

WWW::Shorten::V3 - Perl interface to v3.net

SYNOPSIS ^

    # No appropriate synopsis.

DESCRIPTION ^

A Perl interface to the web site v3.net.

Unfortunately, this service became inactive at some point between 1.90 and 1.91, so this module will merely give you an error if you try to use it. Feel free to pick a different service.

SUPPORT, LICENCE, THANKS and SUCH ^

See the main WWW::Shorten docs.

AUTHORS ^

Iain Truskett <spoon@cpan.org>, Dave Cross <dave@dave.org.uk>

SEE ALSO ^

WWW::Shorten, perl, http://makeurl.v3.net/

Functions ^

makeashorterlink

The function makeashorterlink will call the v3.net web site passing it your long URL and will return the shorter (V3) 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 V3 URL or just the V3 identifier/nickname.

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

EXPORT

makeashorterlink, makealongerlink
