As part of my Teaching Assistant position I push into classrooms to take supplemental notes. This year I’m using a Google slide Notebook which I share with my Teacher Partners. I have a tendency to link out to websites or Google Docs to support the notes taken. Sometimes these weblink address can be very long. I find it is quick and easy to use the goo.gl URL Shortener Chrome extension to shorten website urls.

The goo.gl URL Shortener also offers a few other benefits. One can track data details for website shared. Instead of creating a weblink the user can share a QR code. Chrome tools like this make life quick and easier.
