# kikl.co

_Who could forget **awkward-puffin**?_

**[kikl.co](https://kikl.co)** is a different kind of link shortener. Instead of making URLs as **short** as possible, it makes them as **memorable** as possible.

By default, each link only lasts 24 hours, perfect for quickly transferring a long URL from one device to another 💻📲 or telling people verbally. 😮💬
