I like this change of May 2012. Big change this version: Interface are change of all. New item: "Bundle" is like a category. This user experience are great.

Absolutely terrible as of the update. Took me good minute to figure out how to actually get the shortened link. It is now bloated and just terrible, gonna go find a 3rd part version

The new version (~May 2012) is terrible: it's bloated (just like the icon), doesn't work as advertised, and requires extra steps to publish links. Please, please, please, go back to the previous version.

Was great, new version's just a mess. Everything that was easy about the old version is now just over-complicated and involves more clicks and less automation. Bring back the old version!

The new version is a HUGE step backwards. Functionality is lost, and the ease of use is gone. I was a big supporter of the old version and promoted to co-workers. New version is nearly unusable. I'm looking for a new extension of shortening URLs.

What happened to this extension? It was perfect - simple, type my tweet see how it's formatted and shared. Now there's three screens and four input lines. Maybe I just need to get used to the new features but it's hard to tell where/what goes to twitter now. Dislike.

I far prefer the previous version wich was simpler, faster and more flexible ! with this version we have to click on "share and save" before we get the effective sharing popup and the link is automatically appended to the end of the message without the possibility to add something after like hashtags ! Is there a way to downgrade to the previous version or deactivate the bookmark functionnality ? I only want to use the sharing functionnality and a 1 click-share like it was the case in the previous version is far better !

I used this extension every day before the update. Now, it has taken out the customization of editing text that I could do with the older version. Now I have to add in the title of article I'm reading and then save it before I can tweet it. So, basically I can do all of that without using the extension. This extension is now worthless.

This extension was great before the latest update. Adding 2 or 3 steps to the process of sharing a link does not improve anything. It just slows it down. It takes about 3 clicks for the popup to open. Also, the icon is atrocious.
