TinyURL: Firefox Add-on for Easy URL Shortening

"TinyURL" is a Firefox add-on that converts long URLs into 'tiny' ones using tinyurl.com or is.gd, and automatically copies the short URL to your clipboard in a single click. It also adds supportive context menus to tabs and produces unpretentious notifications. With permissions to access clipboard data, browser tabs, and your data for all websites, it aims for a truly seamless one-click experience.

This extension uses tinyurl.com or is.gd to create a tiny URL from today's ridiculously enormous URLs that frequently fail when launching from email clients and other URI enabled software.

With one click, the URL from your active tab will be sent to the selected URL shortening service, returning the tiny URL directly in to your clipboard, ready for pasting.

There is no extra clicking, and (optionally) no notifications. As soon as you click the icon, you can paste the tiny URL where you want it.
