A different way to send long URLs - popular in Japan for some time and coming to the rest of the world is something called QR barcodes. You can encode a fair amount of information, then using an app on your cellphone (iPhone, Android, etc.) you can extract the information and access it through your browser, read a document, etc. I have attached a code to try in this email (if it comes through) for an example. You can read a little about it at http://www.mavericklabel.com/articles/mobile-tagging.html - there are also some nice You Tube videos and Google has an API for generating them through your web browser.
