I think it most amazing that Twitter has ubiquitized the short URL.
And, also, I agree.. URL shorteners suck. At least improve user experience by showing the original URL in the title attribute.

You probably meant it that way but many people seem to forget over the hype how small twitter still is. Only 0.4% of internet-users have an account there and much less are actively using it.
Consequently short URLs being ubiquitous within twitter doesn't mean much in itself.
