Found a Cool Plugin for Affiliate Links

One thing that always bugs me is the big ugly affiliate links. Like:

Probably most surfers don't notice ...I don't think I did before I got into affiliate marketing and got the inside scoop. But it can be much cleaner with a new wordpress plugin I found at:

I heard Alice Seba talking about redirecting her links at one point so that users would view a cleaner url when they moused over the link...but it seemed like way too much work, so this is an easier solution. It makes me a tad nervous, truth be told, just in case the plugin is not kept up for future versions of wordpress.

This is more busy work that can keep my going for hours!! I sure do love me some busywork!!
