IT Tools Intro 1 - URL Shortener, Maps and File Transfer
Here's some useful IT tools to share:
1. Google Map - http://maps.google.com.sg/
A map which you can customise and give necessary directions and instructions.
2. URL Shortener - http://tinyurl.com/

(a) WeTransfer: https://www.wetransfer.com/ - To transfer files up to 2GB
(b) YouSendIt: https://www.yousendit.com/ - To transfer files up to 100MB
