SpiffyLinks™

Home

Because I love you all so much (in a strictly platonic way, of course), I'm introducing a brand new way to surf around the intarweb. By combining the latest technology with age-old eastern techniques, I have created SpiffyLinks™, the future of interintarwebwebbing!

SpiffyLinks™ are more than three times more efficient and helpful than previous methods of linking. They are also far more accurate and much neater than other leading link-systems found on the intarweb. And the best part is, I'm bringing SpiffyLinks™ to you for absolutely nothing! That's right - it's free! So sit back, relax, and enjoy the superior quality and value of SpiffyLinks™, "The New Way 'Round the Intarweb."

(If you'd be kind enough to let me know if a SpiffyLinks™ is inactive or broken, I'll be glad to fix/remove it.)
