ajh.me and ajhpic.me URL shortening
Posted on 15 Feb 2009 in Internet
While services like tinyurl.com are good for shortening URLs, and TwitPic.com is great for posting pictures on Twitter – ultimately I hate using free services that could quite easily go away when their owners lose interest – taking all my links and pictures with them! So I’ve mashed together and significantly modified the PostMaster, TweetMe and Shorturl plugins for WordPress, along with creating my own personal URL shortening service: ajh.me (for blog posts) and ajhpic.me (for photos). Works nicely, no dependance on external services and all traffic comes to anthonyjhicks.com. Posting, shortening and tweeting is all automatic on receipt of an appropriately tagged email (e.g. iPhone) or web post.
