The issue appears to be caused by long URLS. Steps to reproduce.


2. Click R3 bookmarklet in browser.

3. Click submit, see message box displaying that 140 character limit has been exceeded

4. Post continues to linkblog. See the item at http://radio3.io/users/frankm/ that says "Why you should be excited for Maker Faire Detroit (and how you can win tickets)"
The post above is not shared to Facebook and Twitter.
Because the issue is being caused by the long URL, I edited the URL in the browser window by removing everything after ".aspx" in URL above. I think clicked the R3 bookmarklet and sharing to Facebook and Twitter completed as expected.

I am not sure this is something that needs to be fixed in Radio 3 as much as just to be known by users, all these long "search parameters" or "advertising indicators" seem to be added to lots of URLS being sourced by email newsletters or other similar sources.
