Create Short URL by Google URL Shortener
Create Short URL by Google URL Shortener

Shortening URL is a great way to share large URLs. There are many free URL shorteners. Even some shorteners (ie. AdFly) offer revenue to the users. But I simply hate them. Because it bores people. More than two years ago I wrote about Tiny URL. But do you know, Google has a shortener too?! Lets try . . .
Google URL Shortener
Follow the above link and you will get the following view:

Now copy and paste your desired URL in the box and hit on the Shorten URL button. Immediately you will get a short URL in the right side.
Remember, if you are not signed in to your Google account, you have to enter captcha. But if youre signed in, you dont need to type captcha and a list of short URLs create by you will be kept in your account. You can also view the number of click on those short URLs!
In the list of short URL, you will get detailed analysis of each URL. How many clicks from where, which browser, which operating system etc.
For Example:
This is my sites URL - http://www.markspcsolution.com/
This is short URL - goo.gl/H4ydU2
Have you noticed, just 06 characters after goo.gl. Previously it was only 05 characters. Whatever the size of URL, you will get a small URL.
Suppose, the URL of this post is as below -
http://www.markspcsolution.com/2012/04/how-to-shorten-long-url.html
And the short URL of this is here - goo.gl/sK1ylX.. . And its really short!
When someone clicks on the short URL, he will be redirected to the main URL within a very short time. When youre sharing a large URL via mobile text, it could be difficult for you to type when the copy paste option is not available. But you can share short URL anytime, anywhere. :)
Note: All goo.gl URLs are public and can be accessed by anyone.

Removing/ Changing Shortcuts . . .
Sometimes your customized shortcuts may create conflict with the default keyboard shortcuts of MS Word. In that case, you can remove or change that shortcut. Follow the steps below:

How to create a Drupal 7 newsletter with HTML email formatting
How to create a Drupal 7 newsletter with HTML email formatting
Enable Simplenews (and dependencies):
drush en -y simplenews mimemail mailsystem htmlmail
drush updatedb
Configure Simplenews to use HTML format and default send action is to "Send newsletter":
/admin/config/services/simplenews/settings
Configure your custom newsletter content type to use HTML format:
/admin/config/services/simplenews/categories/
Give "Subscribe to newsletters" and "Choose to receive plaintext emails via HTML Mail" permissions to all roles and give the remaining Simplenews permissions to Content Administrators (or other desired role):
/admin/people/permissions
Additional secret-decoder-ring configuration:
https://www.drupal.org/node/1283756#comment-5733262
Add newsletter subscribe block to desired theme section:
/admin/structure/block
Logout of site and subscribe via block from previous step. P.S. You can also auto-populate subscribers here:
/admin/people/simplenews
Login to site and create newsletter:
/node/add/simplenews
Send newsletter to queue (by clicking the "Newsletter" tab of the newly created node):
/node/
Run cron to process the queue (may need to run multiple times if number of recipients is greater than "cron throttle" setting on /admin/config/services/simplenews/settings/mail):
/admin/reports/status/run-cron
P.S. Its better to use real cron instead of Drupals default poormanscron.
