dplr.it/london style city shortlinks for Twitter

We’ve made dedicated shortlinks for key cities around the world so it’s easy to refer to them in tweets, emails and status updates. For major cities just use the city name after http://dplr.it/ and use “-” instead of a space in the name.

Try, for example:
http://dplr.it/london
http://dplr.it/new-york
http://dplr.it/helsinki
http://dplr.it/san-francisco
http://dplr.it/paris
http://dplr.it/sydney
http://dplr.it/madrid
http://dplr.it/amsterdam

Similarly, places to eat and stay in cities have shortlinks. See, for example http://dplr.it/eat/r8i0 and http://dplr.it/stay/kxh0 in London.

  1. Hey, just an idea. How about using airport codes in the shortlinks too? i.e:

    http://dplr.it/lhr
    http://dplr.it/lax
    http://dplr.it/rdu
    etc.

    It’s a lot shorter, plus it might be handy for when people want to tweet at the airport.
