How to shorten your URL using Google’s Goo.gl
Posted on | January 4, 2010 | No Comments
Google has launched its own url shortening service Goo.gl. However, Google URL Shortener is currently available for Google products and not for broader consumer use.
There is, fortunately, a trick to get your blog url shortened using Goo.gl. You must use Feedburner for your feeds. Just go to your Feeds -> Publicize -> Socialize and add a twitter account. Whenever you write a new post in your blog, Feedburner will automatically tweet it with the url shortened using Goo.gl.
You can then just copy it from your twitter stream and share it with your friends.
Do you have any other trick? Please share it in the comments section.
