Very good and useful, but should know setting of this extension.
之前用快如閃電，點完立刻縮網址並複製，而且跳出的方框立刻消失，但只能選tinyurl 沒 有歷史紀錄功能。現在作者還在修改中，完全不能用。
Good!
Wonderfull app to shorten URLs!!

Funktioniert wunderbar (ich nutze die API-Schnittstelle von Bit.ly) - Der URLShortener tut, was er soll!
Used to work well before... Now it just stopped working unfortunately!!

Geht nicht mehr.
Want to like it, seems simple enough, but doesn't work at all. Just gets stuck loading.
Era una EXCELENTE aplicación que, simplemente, ha dejado de funcionar. Una pena.

Perfect..
Great extension. It would be nice if there were a keyboard shortcut to shorten and copy to clipboard instead of an actual mouse click, but that's my only criticism.
Latest version does not create google shortcuts, comes back with message "bad captcha" Please fix.
Very good extension, but why i can't see the twitter login form in the settings? It's a very frustrating bug :-S Do you know any email contacts for communicate with the developers? Thanks.
This sucks. Use TinyURL extension instead, which by one click will convert it into a tinyurl as well as copy it to the clipboard - INSTEAD - of forcing you to copy + paste the original URL at all. Try TinyURL after trying this crap!
does it's job well enough!
