    Using the Cligs URL Shortening Tool

    Posted on January 19th, 2009 in Getting Started by Steve

    Everyone using twitter should check this out for shortening URL’s. If you open an account with cligs (free) and create your short URL’s from within your account, you can track the clicks (way cool!). Also, you can tweet direct from the saved “cligs”!

    Here’s a video for using a FireFox add-on which supports several URL shortening tools including cligs. Even if you don’t use cligs, I still highly suggest this add-on. Even for those using tinyurl, this add-on will work great!
