Call the bit.ly URL shortener for the current site
Authored by: pgib on Nov 18, '08 08:51:57AM

bit.ly has a much nicer bookmarklet you can add:

javascript:var%20e=document.createElement('script');e.setAttribute('language','javascript');e.setAttribute('src','http://bit.ly/bookmarklet/load.php');document.body.appendChild(e);void(0);

It loads over the current page as a semi-transparent strip with a simple "Copy" link that copies the shortened URL for the current page to your clipboard.

thank you thank you for posting this... bit.ly had replaced their bookmarklet on their site with one that pops open a new window. I had clobbered the bookmarklet you posted with their new one. I really prefer the grey overlay, as it works nicer when I'm in MobileSafari.

So, you might also want to check out their new bookmarklet, it has other/different nice features to it.
