Bit.ly launches Bitly.tv to showcase hottest videos on the web

Bit.ly is probably the web’s most popular link shortening service mostly due to its default status on Twitter micro-blogging network.

As a result, the company gets access to tons of data on which links are popular on the web at any given time.

Bit.ly is finally making use of this data with the launch of their new platform named Bitly.tv.

Bitly.tv would showcase videos that are popular on the web at any given time. The data would be based on the number of clicks received through their shortened links on the web.

Currently the service offers three views based on popularity period (now, last day, last two days). We expect the company to launch more services based on the similar concept.
