Brief Description:
gus -- Google URL Shortener
Google URL Shortener (Goo.gl) now has a simple web interface where you input a URL and receive a shorter one.
http://googlesocialweb.blogspot.com/2010/09/google-url-shortener-gets-website.html
examples:
[[gus? &url=`[[++site_url]][[~[[*id]]]]`]]<br>
<img src="[[gus? &url=`http://www.modxcms.com`]].qr"><br>
<a href="[[gus]].info">Analytics info</a><br>
<a href="[[gus? &url=`http://www.google.com`]]">[[gus? &url=`http://www.google.com`]]</a>
DropboxUploader -- Upload files to a Dropbox account.
DIG -- Dynamic Image Generator
gus -- Google URL Shortener
makeQR -- Uses google chart api to make QR codes.
MODxTweeter -- Update your twitter status on publish.
Although you can make QR codes just by adding a .QR to the end of your goo.gl link it works well with combining it with the makeQR snippet.
If you need to override the defaults.
[[makeQR? &message=`[[gus? &url=`[[++site_url]][[~[[*id]]]]`]]` &size=`80x80`]]

gus seems to be playing havoc with Articles in my 2.2.4 site.
After installing the gus snippet I can't get into the Articles interface at al via the manager.
Anyone else seen this issue?

Absolutely! I can't use Modx Tweeter now! Anyone know a github page to submit the issue to?

I'm still using ModX Tweeter, just not with gus. Twitter automatically convert long url's into t.co url's
