Currently implementations are available for the following services:

* http://bit.ly

* http://cli.gs

* http://goo.gl

* http://is.gd

* http://shortr.net

* http://tinyurl.com

* http://t.co

Typical Usage

-------------

```actionscript

IUrlShortner shortener = new BitLyShortner(); // can be replaced with any shortening provider available

  

public function shortenUrl(url:String):void {

  // trace the version

  trace('Shortener API version: ' + shortener.version);

  if(!shortener.supportsAnonymousShortening) {

    shortener.authenticate(myUserName, myPasswordOrApiKey);

  }

  

  if(shortener.supportsShortening) {

    shortener.shortenUrl(url, successHandler, errorHandler);

  }

}

public function successHandler(response:UrlShortenerResponse):void {

  trace('Short url is: ' + response.shortUrl);

  

  // let's expand this to the full URL via the API

  if(shortener.supportsExpansion) {

    shortener.expandUrl(response.shortUrl, successHandler2, errorHandler);

  }

}

public function successHandler2(response:UrlShortenerResponse):void {

  trace('Original expanded url is: ' + response.longUrl);

}

public function errorHandler(event:Event):void {

  trace('error occured during url shortening/expansion.');

}

```
