Integration with Twitter for iPhone

After Siteous and TweetDeck, now we can integrate Siteous with Twitter for iPhone. You also can use this Twitter for iPhone application also on your iPad and iPod Touch.

First, go to Accounts menu, then tap Settings button. Tap Services, and then tap URL Shortening. There will be some options for URL shortener services. Choose Custom…. In the Custom page, insert this URL in the text box:

http://steo.us/core.api/?url=%@

After that, tap Save button on upper right. Tap Done button twice to out from Settings menu.

To shorten URL. Just type (or paste) the URL on your tweet when composing new tweet. Before posting, tap the button on the right-top of keyboard (that showing your remaining character). Keyboard will disappear, and be replaced with other new menus. Tap  Shrink URLs button.

Shortening process will take some time, depends on your internet speed on your iPhone. Unfortunately, Twitter for iPhone does not have any indicator while shortening the URL. But, sometimes internet activity indicator on status bar can be helpful. ;)

PS: Twitter for iPhone was Tweetie. So, you also can apply this to Tweetie 2, if you still have it, hehe.
