These twitter links are a bit long aren't they?

IS there anyway to shorten the URL when you "tweet" a thread?

How easy/hard is it to have you own URL shortener? mm.nt perhaps

Yes, there is, Sagacity.

You can use a url-shortening service like bitly - you paste the long link in and they'll generate you a nice new short one.

You can find bitly here
