Bars and Shorties Are Surging

Can I blame ginx.com for the sudden surge of bars and URL shortening services (shorites) popping up? Ginx.com was the first service I remember that offered both services, but now it seems others are following suit. Many services usually offer one or the other, but more are offering both.

There’s the Digg bar and now StumbleUpon is in the game with Su.pr. Who’s next?
