"[dickensurl.com] has been created to convert long URLs into wonderful works by Charles
Dickens. The fear of cryptic URLs, long or short, is now no longer a problem. Enter an
ugly URL above and hit convert button. Soon you will be faced with beautiful words of
Charles Dickens. Forget tinyurl.com, now you have dickensurl.com!"
Example:
http://dickensurl.com/7/If_you_could_see_my_legs_when_I_take_my_boots_off,_you'd_form_some_idea_of_what_unrequited_affection_is.
