What is URL Shortening?

Before we get into bundles, let me explain what URL shortening is. URL shortening is a technique  in which a URL is shortened in order to make it easier to share, this is especially helpful while using services like Twitter where you're limited to 140 characters. For example, http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/FOHLLb/~3/Sroq35FH8HQ/bittorrent-visualization-in.html is shortened to http://bit.ly/aB0QEo

What are Bundles?

Bundles now allow you share multiple links with one http://bit.ly short URL. Every link added to a bundle includes a rich media preview and bit.ly metrics in order for you to track clicks on each URL. The  title and description of the bundle can also be customized in order to give your readers a nice intro as to what you are sharing.

Bundle samples:

• travel guide to Washington, D.C. from our friends at Jauntsetter
• collection of videos soundtracked by the Free Music Archive
• bundle of fun from Superchunk drummer/comedian Jon Wurster
