This extension enables you to quickly and easily shorten URLs.

Once installed, just right click anywhere in the page to shorten your current URL or right click on a supported element (images, hyperlinks) to shorten their respective URL directly. Furthermore, you can optionally login to bit.ly which enables additional features! (not required to shorten links!) Like shortening via bit.ly, so you can see the links you have shortened either on bit.ly or directly in the extension's UI!

Features:

  • Hyperlink shortening
  • Image link shortening
  • Customization via a settings panel
  • Current URL shortening in context menu or by clicking the extension's icon* (see note below)
  • Anonymous shortening using tinyurl.com
  • Shortening through bit.ly (requires bit.ly login)
  • View previously shortened links (requires bit.ly login)

We use the latest technology to login to bit.ly (oAuth 2.0) which ensures security of your login credentials by using bit.ly's portal to enable access to our extension. We have no access to your password or e-mail in any shape or form.
