Twitter + tinyURL bookmarklet

For those of you who are tired of copying and pasting links whenever you’d like to minify the link and post it on twitter, read on:

  • Simply drag the following link onto your bookmarks tab: twitterLink
  • Woot, you’re done!
  • Now, whenever you’re on a site that you would like to post on your twitter, simply click your newly created twitterLink button
  • You will be taken to twitter with a tiny url link already “pre-typed” for you :)

There, no more copy/paste nonsense! Tested to work with Firefox & Safari.

This is my first bookmarklet, so if there is something I did but absolutely shouldn’t have done - please let me know :)

P.S.: props to James Padolsey for the tinyurl jsonp code, I didn’t have to write it myself! :)
