Hi all,


Just found this site help-me.to/, which gives you a free URL for

re-direction to whatever site you specify (eg: help-me.to/get_a_life/).


Now, they claim not to put any advertising into the process at any point

(eg: they could force a new window during the re-direction if they wanted

to). So I'm wondering, what do they get out of this?


Is it just the advertising potential of people coming to *their* home page

to set up site re-directions? Or is rather the web browsing data they will

get by taking on all the requests?


Have a top weekend!


Charlie.
