It's not stupid; this way they get to monitor who visits the links posted.

What TheSHADOW said.
Also, note that Twitter now 'shortens' links already shortened with third party services, meaning a minimum of two forwards before your browser gets where you were trying to go.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
