There's still a lot left to be done. I'd like to add more url shorteners, and find a way to make tinyarrows actually work. But it works for now.
Shurl finds the shortest URL from a list of URL shortening APIs. If there's one I don't have, please let me know and I'll add it. It queries each API for a short url and then gives the user the shortest one back. Pretty simple stuff.
This is pretty much your stereotypical product of a college student. When I'm bored and not paying attention to lectures, this is what happens.
Updates are pushed to gemcutter.org
sudo gem install shurl
Optionally clone it from here and make sure the tests pass
git clone git://github.com/marksands/shurl.git
Test with rake or turn
require 'shurl'
foo = Shurl::Shortener.new
mini = foo.shorten("http://www.cnn.com")
# mini => "http://is.gd/aMH0W"
