All,
There is a new URL-shortening service (a service to make long URLs
smaller, like for use on Twitter, etc) for FileMaker enthusiasts.
The Web page:
http://fmp.fm/
(catchy, huh? FileMaker, Inc. can be found at http://fmp.fm/fm)
COMING SOON:
--Bookmarklets: links anyone can drag to their browser toolbars to
automatically shorten URLs (or to create custom ones)
--API: Like if you put this into a Web Viewer in FileMaker:
http://fmp.fm/yourls-api.php?username=xxxxxxx&password=yyyyyyy&action=shorturl&url=http://www.target.com&output=simple
It would automatically go to fmp.fm, shorten the sent URL (in this
case http://www.target.com) and return the shortened version (in this
case http://fmp.fm/20). Then you could scrape that out of a Web
Viewer, etc etc.
--Click tracking and other HootSuite-type ornaments. First, The Forum,
then Rome. :)
I hope you find this useful.
This is a labor of love. If anyone wants to help he work on it, give
me a shout.
Sincerely,
