The Side Path.com is a very very cool new product that is about to be launched soon.

Sidepath is a simple user interface for easily adding .htaccess redirects to a folder on your domain enabling you to give out simple addresses to complex URLs.

What that basically means is that you will be able to have your domain redirect to any url without typing in a bunch of non related terms that sometime give you shivers when just looking at it.

So instead of pointing to www.yourdomain.com/xYz12Abd#40r=?124343 you could just say www.yourdomain.com/go/computers and save that long extension from ever being seen.

The demo movie on the site shows an example of such functionality, you can check it out here.

The site is still not launched, and there is no beta tag - OMG!, you can sign up to be notified when it is. I have, and if you have your own domain I suggest you do as well.

The application is built by Massive Blue, who create standards compliant web sites that are stylish, forward thinking, and user friendly. They are based in Edinburgh, Scotland who are passionate about creating the best solution for your budget and your business model.
