I want to use the url shortening service bit.ly in an android app I'm working on, and was looking for a .jar or something to help me.
Couldn't find anything made for Android which used the httpclient and json -stuff we have bundled with the the Dalvik vm, so I made one myself today and put it on github.
Easiest way is just go grab the BitlyAndroid.java, put it into your source code and start making short URLs. The github project is just a "proof of concept" android junit project.
Usage:
BitlyAndroid bitly = new BitlyAndroid("bitlyapidemo","R_0da49e0a9118ff35f52f629d2d71bf07");
String shortUrl = bitly.getShortUrl("http://johnsenf.blogspot.com/2009/12/android-sources-and-javadoc-in-eclipse.html");//shortUrl = "http://bit.ly/9LSEfV"
