Yellkey.com Quickly Share a URL #edtech #yellkey

Sometimes you're doing a training or teaching with kids and you have to share a link quickly to a lot of people. Or you have a link to share that's long and cumbersome or maybe has some weird characters in it that can easily be confused (I'm looking at you goo.gl URL shortener and Google Classroom).

That's where a service like yellkey.com comes in. Simply visit the site, enter your URL and yellkey.com spits out a URL with a common word at the end that's easy to share and remember.

The link lasts for five minutes to 24 hours, depending on what you choose, and then goes away.

I believe this service used to be called shoutkey.com because I was going to blog about it a few weeks back but couldn't access the URL. If you're in a pinch and need to get a URL out, yellkey.com just might do the trick.
