Shortcut

Modern web browser are packed with an abundance of tools, which might not necessarily be entirely related to the web. Needless to say that these include bookmarks managers to help you better handle Internet shortcuts. However, there are also alternatives like Shortcut, which allow you to create shortcuts to your favorite shortcuts.

Turn URLs into shortcuts

First of all, you can check out the application’s set of features from the moment download is done, because it doesn’t take you through a setup process. This means you can use it directly from a thumb drive, and easily carry it with you. Note that the computer you decide to use it on needs to be fitted with .NET Framework.
As far as the interface is concerned, it’s not really something to make it stand out from the crowd. However, it’s quite intuitive overall, with a couple of fields to specify the target web address, as well as the name of the shortcut. It can’t grab addresses from your web browser, so the source URL needs to be manually written down or pasted from clipboard.

Can only create one shortcut at a time

Unfortunately, the application has absolutely no connection to your web browser, regardless of your choice. It would have been useful to be able to grab URLs from the bookmarks manager, at least from Internet Explorer. Note that the shortcut of the web page is delivered next to the application executable.
The application is devoid of any advanced features, so your only choices are to add a name to the shortcut you create, as well as the URL field. The shortcut is a regular one, which brings up the source page in your default web browser.

On an ending note

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that Shortcut is the type of application to use in order to create regular shortcuts to your favorite web pages. Unfortunately, this needs to be done one item at a time, especially since there’s no relation to existing bookmarks whatsoever.
