Twitter. Link shortener. About time.

Twitter released its own link shortener this week. It’s about time. Now you can paste any link into your tweet and Twitter automatically shortens it to 19 characters so you have more characters available to impart your wisdom, sales pitch, IMHOs or one-liners. Read all about it here! If you want to use a 3rd party link shortening service for analytics, you still can. So go to town, people. Tweet your links fast and often.
