Except if someone tweets a link like http://www.zeldman.com/2009/08/10/shorten-this/ http://www.zeldman.com/2009/08/10/shorten-this/, it will get shortened by a 3rd party shortener.
- jerf 17y agoI don't use Twitter. Would it automatically shorten http://zeldman.com/?p=2233 http://zeldman.com/?p=2233 ? Does it just shorten all links, or just ones that need to be shortened? I'm assuming all, since non-shortened links can't be "monetized". (Feh.)
- Semiapies 17y agoIt doesn't shorten all links. Personally, I suspect the real source of the objection to URL shorteners is that they break referrer tracking and other sorts of ad-related analysis.
