Just like Batman and Robin or Tweeter and bit.ly, Woofer also got a pretty nice sidekick. And it’s called : FreakingHugeURL. A pretty straight forward name for the service they provided.

So, what is this FreakingHugeURL ? You’ve known that bit.ly serves for being Tweeter official URL shorten-er, but does Woofer got an official URL longer-er ? Well, you’ve got one now. Unofficial, but it’s still do the work.

I was just woke up a half hour ago when I stumbled into a very interesting post by the WebWare team. It’s about a service that parodied twitter right to the core. It’s called Woofer.

So what is this Woofer thing ? this is extracted right from the website itself :

Woof·er n., v., adj., adv., prep., etc.
When 140 characters is not nearly enough.

Yes, when 140 characters is not enough. A direct homage to twitter 140 characters limit. So I thought, “Hey, that means they can give me 255 Characters at least”. Until I saw 1400 Characters in the post box. And so I thought again, naively, “Hey, This is way too cool!! 1400 Characters limit!!”  and that’s where my biggest mistake begins.

.tk, the URL re-directer we’ve known for long is exploring a new business possibility in URL Shortening category which already filled by excellent service providers such as is.gd, tr.im, the official tweeter url shortener, bit.ly and the ever shortest and weird tinyarro.ws

Here comes Part Two of My WebWare of Choice :

1. Video Sharing

• Youtube. I have to admit, I’m not a really big fan of video sharing site since my internet connection is extremely low. What I mean with low is this :
  
  There, you happy ? I’m fed-up with people from around the world complaining how slow their internet connection in this lifehacker article. And I’m paying as much as these guys paid for, 30 Bucks++/Month (In case if you are wondering : This is DSL ala Indonesia). If only YouTube, Vimeo or MetaCafe have a much more lower (ELD = Extremely Low Definition) videos….. NOTE : A faster packet is available for 300 USD++/Month for a mere “up to” 3 MBps connection. Yeah..
