Tinycurl.com was probably the website for some woman's hair care product :)

Speaking of tinyurl.........

DougPav brought to my attention that for Firefox users there is a plug-in that you can get off line that makes it very simple to convert the url.  Simply right click anywhere on the page you want to make a tinyurl...one of your options will be to create a tiny url.  You choose that option, go to where you want to paste it and paste it.  Your hand never has to leave the mouse.  It works great.  Here's the add-on.

I modified this post.  Afterward I noticed the link I put on was an earlier version.  The 2.0 is posted here now.
