Bug Description

Currently CSS is not able to forcibly wrap a link unless it finds a '/' or ' ' character . Because of this, long links without folder names separating the length (like grabUp links) extend the tweet list and make everything a bit hard to see on the right.

Proposal for fixing: Use Twitter's method of turning links like this:

Into links like this:

By making the labels shorter, we avoid unnecessarily expanding the tweet list.

We need to decide on an algorithm for parsing through tweets and shortening links that are longer than a certain amount.
