Bit.ly now offers J.mp
You all know the shorten URL web apps, they exist for a long time now, but they sure have become a must use app if you are using Twitter. And Twitter itself made the choice of their favorite shorten URL site: http://bit.ly/ . But this last one has one interesting, new and even shorter option to use it: http://j.mp/.
J.mp gives you two extra chars to use with your tweets, and will represent from now on, that everyone that uses j.mp can have a 1.4% length increase in their tweets. Yes, I know, those stats doesn’t sound like a big deal to you, but isn’t cool to have a even shorter option for your URLs?
Bit.ly and j.mp are both products from Betaworks group, that is having an important growth from last May: Since then, Twitter replaced TinyUrl with Bit.ly as its built-in short URL service.
I’ve been always grateful with these shorten URLs apps, did you ever ask to you what would Twitter be without the shorten URLs?
