How Simple To Create Your Own URL Shortening Service

by Sakib on 20/07/2009

Most recently, I brought a domain for short url generating service. I’m not going to use any more tinyurl‘s service but I’m trying to get ride of from ff.im. It’s sometimes tough and looks massive to share such a long title plus links to share on limited character based twitter service or somewhere else. Such as, Speeding Up In A Slowdown: If You Focus On The User, Everything Else Will Follow & http://isakib.com/speeding-up-in-a-slowdown-if-you-focus-on-the-user-everything-else-will-follow = 239 characters. How to share on twitter? We have text zipping service but it’s not better solutions.

But, I’m looking for better solutions and looking for Open Source based service, whatever php or mysql based or free service and finally A Short URL Plugin by Ozh give me a great solutions at yourls.org and that will merge two website and will make a bridge in between of three service, respectively WordPress, Hosted Short Urls and Twitter.
