We’re always looking for ways to make sharing videos easier, and realized the long URL attached to each video was less than convenient.

So two months ago, as a first step, we introduced a shortened Post Link URL to be used when embedding a video. While results were promising, the URL converted to original length during video playback, limiting its functionality. After several weeks of tweaking, we’re proud to introduce an even shorter, more serviceable URL.

Short URLs are particularly handy when using Post Links.  Additionally, you or your recipients can copy and paste the link from the address bar for easy forwarding, and Short URLs can be used with any video from your video library.

Example: Previous ‘Long’ Playback URL

Example: New ‘Short’ Playback URL
