Right Click To Get TinyURL of Any Page – Chrome Extension

by Dinu

chrome extensions  Right Click To Get TinyURL of Any Page   Chrome ExtensionHere is a Chrome Extension  that adds an option to the context menu to copy links as short URLs. ( needs dev build as of now ) You have a tiny url copied in two simple mouse clicks.

Currently there are two providers available for shortening URLs: bit.ly and TinyURL. More providers will be added soon. A recent update has added option to use your own bit.ly account so you can track URL stats.

Install the Extension from Here.

The Google Chrome Extension Gallery is seeing a lot of new extensions using the context menu – an upcoming feature.  I will bring you more exciting extensions using this option to be ready for this new feature.

It should also work on the beta version, since it has the contextMenu extension API as well.
Should it not?

if its available on beta version now, yes .. need to test it ..

I have chromium nightly, canary and dev build on my system, no stable or beta …

can you try it once please ?

I do not have the beta as well, but I imagine they did not use any experimental API, because that means it will only see light in a minimum time of 6 weeks.

I believe it is not an experimental API anymore .. so beta should be good ?

If it comes from the gallery – it will sure fit the beta.

Here is another similar extension, though supports only Bitly, but have capability to allow users to use their own bitly username and api. Hence, users can track hits from their own account. BitlyPro (custom domain) users can also use it.

Try it from here:
