Twitter + is.gd bookmarklet
Here is a new bookmarklet. It uses http://is.gd to create short urls, and “types” them into your twitter status box. Drag it onto your bookmarks tab & start clicking:
Initially I wanted my twitter bookmarklet to use is.gd for its shorturl purposes. However, my first Twitter bookmarklet used tinyurl due my inability to find a jsonp api wrapper for is.gd.
Since I didn’t yet wanted to go to sleep, I created my own “JSONP wrapper” for is.gd’s API and used it for my bookmarklet. Check it out with more information here: http://isgdp.wompires.com.
(note: is.gd imposes a 1000 requests per ip per day limitation. Even though I cache all is.gd requests, there might be a point at which this bookmarklet will fail to work. Sorry!)
