Hi all,

I mentioned this a while back, and was wondering if anyone is working
on it. My retweets are intermittently truncated.

I retweeted this to bookmark it.

It was bookmarked as t.co.

Since I often miss that this has happened, when I go back to find the
real link, I may not find the original tweet. This makes me think it
might be useful to bookmark the permalink to the tweet as well.

I prefer first to have the untruncated links if possible.

I found a bug that was affecting retweets. Basically they would be
truncated at 140 characters even though the 'RT @user:' prefix made
them longer. This tended to cut off any trailing links. I've fixed
the error; please let me know if you see it happen again.
