Given the cool recent activity<\/a> around url shortening<\/a> in Opera, I thought I could also give my small contribution.<\/p>\n

In fact, a url shortening command is missing in Ubiquity for Opera<\/a>. Or rather, it was<\/b> missing.<\/p>\n

There's a new command, shorten-url<\/code>, based on bit.ly's<\/a> API, that allows you, as usual with Ubiquity commands, to shorten the current open tab URL, or shorten any URL you type in the Ubiquity window. Here you can see a screenshot as example:<\/p>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

This new command also uses the amazing ajax-enabling UserJS library by xErath<\/a>. Another interesting news is that from now on, I'll use YUI Compressor<\/b> to also ship a minified version of the ubiquity javascript code, that almost halves the size, so that's good, since we're already at ~80kb uncompressed.<\/p>\n

As usual, you can download Ubiquity for Opera<\/a>,
\n(or the minified version<\/a>), or go to the Ubiquity for Opera github repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Enjoy :-)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
