Similar implementation in Twittori project

I would like to point you to a similar implementation like the OSM shortlinks discussed here. It is part of my Twittori project under http://www.twittori.com. Shortlinks there look like this: http://GE0.at/0BOdWE (e.g. for the Eiffel Tower). We use a modified Geohash algorithm where 64 characters instead of 32 are used (Geohash on Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geohash). The zooming is ignored or that is to say taken from the former zooming settings of the user which is saved in cookies. If you like to see the code or if I can be helpful in another way please contact me via twittori@me.com
