Peninsula News uses website shortcuts
Peninsula News has started to use website shortcuts for longer website addresses.
The shortcuts will come in the form of http://penne.ws/rain.
Typed into the address bar of your browser, they will take you to a website with a much longer address.
Using the shortcut, sometimes called a "shortened URL", takes less space in the newspaper, looks neater and means less copying for you.
Media releases with website addresses are likely to have those addresses replaced with a shortcut as part of the editing process.
Bear in mind that the destination website does not belong to Peninsula News.
The shortcut is just a quick way to get to that website.
Always exercise caution when using any link, shortened or not, and only visit websites you trust.
