Cli.gs was not shut down; the old cli.gs URLs continue to point where they always have.

I’d like to change url, but can you now answer what happened with old cli.gs URL’s already created?

I have the same problems as jeff/ I also can’t add short link to the bit.ly account. This are problems with server?
P.S. sorry for my bad english.

I went ahead and attempted to tweet a new WP post using bit.ly, it gave me a short URL, but it added a parenthesis to my original URL resulting in a 404 error. It also did not register the short link to my bit.ly account, so I can’t edit it. My server is running PHP 5. I don’t know if the problem is in the plug-in or on my server. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

When I pressed the “check support” button, I received the following messages:

* Successfully contacted the Cli.gs API via Snoopy and created a shortened link.
* Failed to contact the Bit.ly API via Snoopy.
* Successfully contacted the Twitter API via Snoopy.
* Your server should run WP to Twitter successfully.

Thanks.

That’s still an unknown; but it’s a definite risk that they’ll no longer be valid.

Ahh that’s a bummer! What’ll happen to the old cli.gs URL’s already created?
