Twitter and TinyURL
Posted in Daily Beta on May 4th, 2007Twitter converts URLs into TinyURLs. Why? My URLs have the titles in them:
http://thinknola.com/post/a-phone-call-from-the-road-home-with-angelo-silvestri/
When Twitter TinyURLs them, then I loose the title. I do not get to use the space that Twitter harvests with the TinyURL. I need to create a TinyURL of my own.

Check out Elfurl, perhaps that’ll help: http://elfurl.com/ — It’s built in Ruby on Rails and GPL licensed. (and here’s the link to the code: http://dev.biggu.com/repos/elfurl/ )
