As you may have probably known that Tr.im, the URL shortener that I have been using with Twitnews – an applescript that helps to share news items from NetNewsWire to Twitter has been shut down. It is too bad that they had to take this decision for reasons I don’t understand. Anyways, if you are wondering whats next, don’t worry, there is this script by @sean808080 who has improved it to work with Bit.ly URL shortener, which is by far the de-facto standard for URL shortening on Twitter. So, you should probably use it and abandon the original script.

I look forward to use Sean’s changes on the next updates to the script.
