Goo.gl‘s URL shortener is hot property now! And why not, you get a good looking URL that is supported by none other than Google! The only official way of using it at the time of posting was using either it through feedburner or by using the Google toolbar. The feedburner option is for blogs only and wel, I’m not a big fan of toolbars. So here is a FireFox add-on for it!
The name of the add-on is goo.gl lite 1.0 by Matthew Flaschen. You can download the add-on via AFO, from here.
Usage:
Well this is a slightly tricky part if you are especially a new FF user. After installing and restarting your browser, right click anywhere above the URL box (in the blank section). Now select the Customize option from the menu.
Now search for a logo like this: 
, and drag it anywhere you like. (eg. next to the search box.)
That’s it. Now anytime you want to create a shortened Goo.gl URL of the current page, just click on that icon. The short URL will be created and copied to your clipboard. Just paste it anywhere you like!
