twitterfeed now supports two additional URL shorteners, each offering something a little different from the ones already available:
- POPrl is a URL shrinking service that ranks the popularity of its URLs by tracking clicks (for more info see http://poprl.com)
- Adjix lets you earn revenue while you shrink your links, and track these links. If you select Adjix as your URL shortener, twitterfeed will ask you for your partner ID (so the links are created using your id, as otherwise they wouldn’t be linked to your account, and you wouldn’t earn any revenue or be able to track the links). You can get the Adjix partner ID from the “edit profile” section once logged in at http://adjix.com – if you enter this in the feed settings in twitterfeed, it will be included in any API calls made to Adjix.
As always – please let me know if you find any problems with this, preferably by posting at http://getsatisfaction.com/twitterfeed

Beautiful concept and execution. Just saw it and used it today. I am posting an article about your website on my blog. Read and comment if you find time.

Any possibility to use the ‘Business Branding’ on the adjix shrinkage?
All you’d need is an additional brand field which changes the API call to use the tokenOnly=y and then use that field as the branded address.
That should allow for all the Branding options that they support.
Thanks a bunch and really cool.

Paul – thanks for this comment, I’ll take a look when I next get to make some updates. At the moment I’ve been busy with performance related issues, so trying to keep things stable (without having to spend a fortune on hardware) is currently higher priority than new features, but I’ll definitely keep it in mind!

Would be more than happy if you would add my service to your list of available shorteners. Thanks to a sponsor there will be a donation for every redirect between 1st December and 24th December.
The none frill api is:

Result= Short Version
Thanks,

Hi,
Small problem with POPrl. Every so often one of the URLs is replaced by a message to say the maximum number of URLs has been reached. This then gets posted to twitter
Oh, and I have a feature idea! How about an option to limit the number of characters in a tweet. This would make them much easier to retweet.
Thanks,
John

The Adjix support is useful, but I’d love to see support for Adjix personal URLs.
Adjix allows users to assign their own domain name to shortened URLs, so rather than use http://adjix.com/xyz123 I can use http://qpr.nu/xyz123 which would be awesome!
