I love Objective-C.
I understood that while writing my first app, a dead simple bit.ly client. The app is a bleeding beta yet, but it works.
The thing is simple, you copy a link, run the app (from the dock, its faster to do it that way), and you get a short link in your clipboard to paste.
One of the current limitations is that it only works with URLs without parameters. It will silently fail if the URL is too complex, leaving you with an empty clipboard =)
Update: The new version handles all urls, it seems.
The todo list is as follows:
- Let the user change the api key used.
Handle all kinds of urls.- maybe: run in background monitoring the clipboard and shorten urls if found =)
Download it: cocobit.zip
Feedback is welcome =)
