Chrome doesn't really like the URLs, and Twitter doesn't see them either. Awesome, though.

It's a DNS rather than a browser issue, I think

Funny, it's working under my current configuration with Firefox but not with Opera and Chrome translates it in a Google search.

Not the world's best URL shortener...

Yeah, Chrome does the same for me. I can click through the links just fine, but pasting into the URL bar (which you're probably going to have to do until the world updates its URL regexes) only gives me the option of a search, unless the URL's in the history.

Works fine for me in Opera (10.10), whether clicking or typing.

regexpes need to be fixed for it. if you have a sentence with http://facebook.com. - then what is the dot - end of sentence? or end of domain? just having http://to/ will not work, since the resolver will look in the local domain first.
