“Short URL Auto-Discovery‎”

Don’t like your site’s URLs being hidden behind tinyurls on Twitter? Make your own tinyurl service, and broadcast each page’s short URL via HTML or HTTP headers; ultimately Twitter clients will auto-detect that URL and use it instead of making a tinyurl. A must-have for the perfectionist webmaster. (Also applicable to providing a digg.com URL for each and every post if you’re that kind of blogger.)

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
