140it: Condense Ur Text For Twitter When It Won’t All Fit

While Internet slang and abbreviations have become second nature for some technophiles, many of us have trouble converting our words into the pseudo-gibberish sometimes required to make long messages fit into the 140 character limit set by Twitter. 140it , a new service put together over the weekend by the guys behind Yipit , is looking to help. The site will instantly convert whole sentences into condensed text, making common substitutions (like 'r' instead of 'are'), using bit.ly to shorten links, and swapping company names for their StockTwits symbol.
