So, if I didn't forget to upload a zip archive or to press a "Commit" button, it should be all here for you: the GPL'd URL shortener I wrote about earlier that Lester Chan and I have been using for a while now.

yourls-logoOur URL shortener service is called YOURLS, as in Your Own URL Shortener. It's all GPL, free, do-what-you-want-with-it. Lester is running it on his own domain lc.sg, I'm running it on ozh.in, and it's fun :)

A companion for YOURLS is a WordPress plugin (of course) that will generate short URLs for your posts when you publish them, and promote them on your Twitter account. You'll like the plugin even if you're not running your own YOURLS as it's also designed to work with tr.im, bit.ly, is.gd and tinyurl.com for maximum fun.

Get YOURLS, then get the plugin: YOURLS: WordPress to Twitter
