Thurly
2.0Safari plug-in for shortening URLs in a snap.
Overview
With a quick keyboard shortcut (Command-Control-T) Thurly springs to life automatically shortening the URL of the Web page you are on.
From there you can copy the shortened URL out to use elsewhere. Paste it into emails, forums posts, blog entries and much more.
Thurly allows you to also post to Twitter from the main interface. It populates the Status field with a shortened URL and let\'s you edit your post as you like. Click \"Tweet\" or press Command-Enter and your post lands in your Twitter updates.
Registering Thurly is not required. You can use the base features of the plug-in, shortening URLs and posting to Twitter, for free until the cows come home.
We have added some bells and whistles though to make your life easier. Registering allows you to use multiple Twitter accounts, letting you post from different accounts on the fly from the main interface.
We have also built in the option to use a Twitter template. The template let\'s you set a default message that appears in your Twitter Status field each time your open Thurly. Which can also be overridden at any time.
What's new in Thurly
- Thurly 2.0 may seem like a step backward at this point. In a way it is. But it is laying the groundwork to produce Thurly in an official plug-in environment, which is something that has not been available before Safari 5. We plan on adding some of the features that were present in Thurly before back into the plug-in, but for now version 2.0 will focus simply on URL shortening.
