Tweetmeme Has It's Own Url Shortner

http://nobosh.com/images/stock/raw_TwitterLogoBird_twitter_logo_bird.jpgJust when I thought that there were just about enough of these around, Tweetmeme go and release their own URL shortener, retwt.me, specifically for Twitter. Despite this, they don’t really add anything ‘new’ to the table.
Said to have been made over a weekend of pizza, code and coding, retwt.me comes with a sleek and sexy look and makes it really quite easy to shorten, share and analyse your links.
According to Nick Halstead, using and understanding retwt.me is really quite simple. It has 3 concepts:



  1.  Shorten – Shorten your really long links
  2. Share – Share your shortened links with your friends using the simple tools provided
  3. Analyze – Analyze your links, how they are being passed along, used, how many times they have been clicked and more
As you can see, a lot of URL shorteners can do these things such as bit.ly. However, since we have seen the rapid growth of Tweetmeme you will see the rapid growth of retwt.me URLs in your Twitter stream.
Halstead also assures every Tweetmeme user that you won’t be forced to use retwt.me as a URL shortener and you can continue using the one you want.
Personally I think it’s pretty good with a very neat look. What do you think?

Gizmodo has uncovered some leaked photo Google Android

The Google Android powered smartphones by HTC. Their first attempt with mix, the HTC T-Mobile G1, didn't quite had the eye candyish stuff and get a big fan following. And even though Google announced an unlocked Android G1 around the 2008 holidays, people still preferred the iPhone 3G. Gizmodo has uncovered some leaked photos of a new handset which appear to be quite authentic. The first thing you would notice here is its shiny plastic finish, which is very much welcoming from the pale gray look on G1. Also this time around there is not physical keyboard present, which is a little disappointing. Though the touchscreen is large, but we know the current Android interface had some issues. The back side has a new surprise A 3.2 Mega Pixel camera, though even mid range phones for vendors like Nokia boast a 5.0 Mega Pixel camera these days. What would be interesting is the video capabilities of the G2 (if there are any). The current rumors suggest that this handset would hit the shelves...
