I have just released the new tweet.ms bar. tweet.ms already allows you to create short URLs which redirect to the target page. Now you can also select to add a tweet.ms bar to your link as well which will result in the link page being displayed under the bar (if the result page has no frame breaker that is).

Now anyone who likes your shared link can directly follow you on Twitter by entering his user name and password in the bar. The user will then follow you immediately. Furthermore not only is the Twitter user name and the password never stored on the tweet.ms servers but the user can actually opt in to have an encrypted cookie stored on his PC that contains his Twitter user name and password so that he can use the tweet.ms service easily by being logged in yet never has to enter his credentials again. And his login data is stored only on the local PC – never on the server itself.

Of course the user can also retweet the message directly from within the bar or share the (original) link via various social bookmark services like del.icio.us, digg and so on.

Just see for yourself and try it out – I’m sure you’ll like it:
