It works fine, as long as it recognises its a url. (I assume it uses the Rails "auto_link", or something of that sort - http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/TextHelper.html#M001338) namely start the link with an "http://"; I wrote a bit of code to tinyurl any links """ ruby def self.make_tinyurl(link) url = URI.parse('http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php') req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path) req.set_form_data('url' => link) res = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port).start {|http| http.request(req) } return res.body end """ http://github.com/matthewrudy/rudebay/tree/master/lib/rudebay/twitterer.rb enjoy.
