URL Shorteners
Google and Facebook have both announced URL shortening services today. Shortening URL’s is becoming increasingly popular as a way of saving time consuming keystrokes on mobile devices.
Google has added a URL shortener called goo.gl that works with The Google Toolbar and its Feedburner service to provide shortened URLs that leverage the Google architecture.
Some of the features for Google lists are its network infrastructure uptime, speed and the fact that it scans shortened links for viruses. We’ll have more information once we know how reporting works.
News on Facebook’s URL shortener cites the service as a shortened way to get to existing Facebook URLs. Doing so will allow shorter posting and sharing of profiles and fan pages with vanity URLs.
