PHPurl is a simple script that allows users to make a shorter url. This is great when you have a long url (ex: http://blondish.net/scripts/phpurl/) and you want to make it shorter for SMS or other things that have a limit on how many characters you can type (ex: Twitter). There are a few places online that do this like tinyURL, but this release lets developers take URL shorening into their own hands, thus making them less dependant on third-party.
