I wonder if those can be ported similarly." I haven't looked yet, although I've been meaning to, but I think someone on the Jetpack team is going to be working on this (if they're not already). “Another thing that was in the prototype that isn’t in the SDK anymore is Growl notifications.

However, I think it would be useful if you add the context menu item to links and images as well, so that you can get the short URL for those items without having to open them in their own tabs. Thanks! Thanks for uploading the add-on to AMO! :-)

You should be able to install it off AMO now! I also have a question: Do you guys think the fallback functionality (to tinyURL, currently, because unlike bitly and others, it does not require an API key) is a good thing, or would the add-on be more useful if it only added a right-click menu when there's a short URL exposed, and leave the user alone if not?

Any updates on submitting this to AMO? Installing it from the add-ons builder website doesn't seem to work. :( Dude, this is awesome! Any updates on submitting this to AMO?
