How to combine a new status message and a link in your status box

[OMN]

I have written here about the new status box. This status box has two options. One option is to type a status message. The other allows you to share a link via this box. If you try used share a link also in your status message the URL is in most cases too long. If you have a twitter account you can post a link there and will get a shorter bit.ly URL. If you have no twitter and you don't like to tweet your status or links on twitter you can use for example www.short.to First: Enter an URL to make it short ... Click on the yellow arrow ... ... and copy the new link to the clipboard and here is your new URL: http://short.to/rqwb which you can add into your status box now. - That's all. - Stay tuned! JM
