Hootsuite lets to add only 10 RSS feed to your account. And I started to use Twitterfeed application with bit.ly API. It's perfect for my needs and getting real time statistics.

Don't force us to use ow.ly

We know that ow.ly isn't the best. Why does HootSuite force us to use it?

They say it's for statistics. But for example there's an bit.ly API which lets you get the statistis of your shortened urls. Maybe other URL shortening has the same feature too...

Currently Co-Tweet which is an another Twitter account management tool, use bit.ly API for statistics. I believe HootSuite can do this too.

If ow.ly becomes more popular and more useful in the future, we will be happy to use it. But now it isn't.

We can decide what is best for us, give us some options.

Please don't force us to use ow.ly ;)

A comment on the idea "another short url!" in HootSuite:

Thank you for your fast reply. If someone (for example; me) uses bit.ly only for Twitter, it isn't important.

Let us decide what is best for us. Please don't force us ;) – Çağdaş Ünal, on September 03, 2009 18:34

I agree with others. Currently you and we know that ow.ly isn't better than bit.ly. And you can get the same statistics with bit.ly API.

So there is no need to force us to use it.

Please give us some options! Did you forget it's web 2.0 and it's all about being useful?

A comment on the idea "ow.ly stats need to catch up to bit.ly" in HootSuite:

Hello Moni,

I try to reply. Firstly bit.ly has an API support and we can use it with another apps.

For example, Tweet This (Wordpress Plug-in) supports bit.ly because of it's API. Users can share the post on Twitter with an short URL by clicking a button on your blog. And on the admin panel, it sends tweets of new posts with bit.ly links automaticly.

It means we can track more results so Hootsuite will be more useful for us. And currently you can get the data by bit.ly API. Just research it...

As you know, currently ow.ly isn't better than bit.ly. I hope it will, but now it isn't. Because of this please don't force us to use ow.ly ;) – Çağdaş Ünal, on September 03, 2009 18:16

A comment on the idea "another short url!" in HootSuite:

I think you're wrong because Bit.ly currently has an API and you can show the statistics at your service. Co-Tweet currently uses it, I think you can too. Please don't force us to use ow.ly ;) – Çağdaş Ünal, on September 03, 2009 17:51

I believe that they can do this too. So we can use HootSuite more often. Because it will start to live at our system tray, not our address bar ;).

I agree with Renato. Because bit.ly has an API and currently Tweet This supports it which is a Wordpress plug-in that helps visitors to share the post on Twitter.

It means we can track more links and view more statistics with HootSuite. You know Co-Tweet app currently has this feature. So I think you can too ;)

Please don't force us to use ow.ly, you know we live in web 2.0 and it's API time.
