Something along the lines of: @bspcn Try {this link www.bspcn.com}. You could have the interface take the non-WWW part of the {} bits and have it show a link under the other part. For that matter, someone could throw together a Greasemonkey script in no time to do that. Just like the "@user" and "RT", if enough people did it, they'd probably incorporate it. Oh, and Stephinstl: There isn't a built-in URL shortener. You might be thinking of Tweetdeck's feature, but it's not part of the site.
