WWW::Lengthen Description

Lengthen 'shortened' URLs WWW::Lengthen is a Perl module for lengthen 'shortened' URLs.SYNOPSIS use WWW::Lengthen; my $lenghtener = WWW::Lenghten->new; my $lengthened_url = $lengthener->try($url); # if you find some new and unsupported shortener service $lengthener->add( ServiceName => qr{^http://service.com/} ); # or you may add some known extra services $lengthener->add( %WWW::Lengthen::ExtraServices );There are a bunch of URL shortening services around the world. They have slightly different APIs to shorten URLs but the lengthening part is always the same: follow the shortened URL and see the redirect.This module tries all the known services to find a longer URL. You may say we can do it with WWW::Shorten family but you can't say which services people use to shorten URLs. You can select some specific shortening service for your website to shorten longer URLs automatically, but spammers may post URLs shortened with other shortening services to avoid offensive URLs they post to be disclosed by clever client tools that know which shortening service your site uses.Well, this is a cat and mouse game but I hope this help you a bit, at least to save time copying and pasting to create another WWW::Shorten subclass and load it just to lengthen URLs.
