This post was mentioned on Twitter by liliansi: Linka: Eccezionale tutrial! How To Sociable WP Plugin With Auto TinyURL Or Bit.ly Shortening ( http://bit.ly/nF9tR )…


'Twitter' => Array(
'favicon' => 'twitter.png',
'awesm_channel' => 'twitter',
'url' => 'bit2twit.php?url=PERMALINK',
),


then, my bit2twit.php file makes the conversion with your getBitlyUrl function, and then redirects the header location to twitter like so:


$url = $_GET['url'];
// Ondemand function to generate dynamic bit.ly urls
function getBitlyUrl($url) {
// fill up this 2 lines below with your login and api key
$bitlylogin = 'switzerbaden';
$bitlyapikey= 'R_e06c3df4d1629229278fc355fff1568e';

// you dont need to change below this line
$bitlyurl = file_get_contents('http://api.bit.ly/shorten?version=2.0.1&longUrl='.$url.'&login='.$bitlylogin.'&apiKey='.$bitlyapikey);

$bitlycontent = json_decode($bitlyurl,true);

$bitlyerror = $bitlycontent["errorCode"];

if ($bitlyerror == 0){
$bitlyurl = $bitlycontent["results"][$url]["shortUrl"];
}
else $bitlyurl = $url;

return $bitlyurl;
}

header('Location: http://twitter.com/home?status='.getBitlyUrl($url));


greatly reduced my home page load time by 11 seconds.
