I like to end each week sharing some lovely things I’ve found on the web that I think you’ll like too. If you follow my Facebook page or Pinterest, you may have seen some of these already if you didn’t miss it in your timelines. If you don’t follow my page, you should because I post a lot more than just this list!
Btw, none of the links in this post are affiliate links unless I say so, Iโm just sharing because I thought youโd enjoy!
My Update:
So as usual I waited til the last minute to write this post and then I forgot I had to go out for a friend’s birthday tonight so here I am burning the midnight oil. That’s my way of saying this is going to be a short post ๐

Simple URL for Google+
If you use Google+ you may have noticed that the page URLs aren’t quite friendly. Like mine is https://plus.google.com/u/0/107679793067661018493/posts. Wow like that’s easy to remember right?
I found a nifty little redirect tool that’s free and it will give you a short version of your URL. It’s called http://gplus.to/. Mine is now http://gplus.to/designyourownlovelyblog. ๐

Wow you are quick btw ๐

Hi Marianne,
Another awesome collection… I laughed out loud at the Beethoven image! That’s great. Love the gplus URL shortener too!
Haha thanks Kim, glad you enjoyed the collection. Thanks for stopping by! ๐
I do believe I have a font addiction; typography ROCKS! (Clearly I’ve come to the right place : D )
Thanks, too, for the tip on how to shorten a G+ URL! Much simpler then the smorgasbord of numbers that is my current G+ link…
Hi Kim! Glad you are enjoying my shares here! I am a font hoarder haha!
