A bit obsessed with bit.ly!

This is how I describe me at the moment.

It seems, you see, that I’m suddenly quite obsessed with the bit.ly address shortening service.

It’s not new and I think my obsession may have to do with my Twittering/Tweeting and posting links in there, but I’ve recently found myself shortening links all over the shop! Social networking, instant messaging, emails… all have felt my obsession with address shortening.

Most of the time, it’s been a boon.  No more do I have a single line of whatever occupied by a single web address.  Now, I can fit it into a tiny, tiny space and make my communications look smart.

It’s probably a phase.  I’ll probably find something else next week… I’ve been looking at stickr.com for some reason (I didn’t bit.ly it as that would have made it longer!)
