Twitter with Automatic URL Shortening

Twitter rolled out an automatic link shortening feature this week that will help users to paste their long URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) directly in their tweet`s and it will be converted automatically the URL`s sent through its microblogging website, without worrying that the message will exceed the service's 140-character limit.

After creating your tweewts i.e URL`s of any length it will automatically convert it and you don`t need any third party to shorten the URL`s.



"After you've composed your Tweet and you hit the "Tweet" button, we'll shorten the link so that it only takes up 19 characters," it said.

"You no longer have to worry about fitting a long link into the 140 character limit," Twitter said this message in their recent post on their blog.

Once the message is posted, it will automatically assign a t.co link ID, but the link will appear as a shortened version of the original URL, so that people who see the message will know the site they are going to.

Twitter also added Brazilian to it`s site since they ranked no.13 among the overall sites in Brazil.It is known that it already contains languages including French, German, Spanish, Korean, Russian, and English
