Okay, so this isn’t exactly groundbreaking news, but Manifest has just launched it’s own URL shortener at http://mnfst.co
It’s pretty much the same as any other URL shortener (with a nifty bookmarklet) so if you’re bored of your bit.ly and tired of ow.ly then give it a go.
It’s only a small thing, but it means we can customise links and make our tweets and Facebook posts that bit more Manifest. Loads of publishers do it, such as Mashable and Techcrunch, but it’s quite rare for brands to have their own. I’m not really sure why, as it’s a nice, simple and subtle way to keep things consistent. We’ll be building the shortener into our new look Digital Newsroom soon, but that’s as far as I’ll go in terms of giving away the amazing new features. Keep ‘em peeled for the launch.
Anyway, I just thought I’d shed some light on why our links look a little bit different. Go on, give it a try…
