Description: =====================
        Python bit.ly wrapper
        =====================
        
        This is a thin Python wrapper for the `bit.ly API`_.  Basic usage looks like
        this::
        
        >>> import bitlyapi
        >>> b = bitlyapi.BitLy(api_user, api_key)
        >>> res = b.shorten(longUrl='http://www.google.com/')
        >>> print res['url']
        'http://bit.ly/6Hwstb'
        >>> print res['long_url']
        'http://www.google.com/'
        
        The return from any method call is a dict containing the results of
        decoding the JSON returned from bit.ly.  For example::
        
        >>> import pprint
        >>> pprint.pprint(res)
        {'global_hash': '2V6CFi',
        'hash': '9gOd4I',
        'long_url': 'http://www.google.com/',
        'new_hash': 1,
        'url': 'http://bit.ly/9gOd4I'}
        
        You can supply arbitrary keywords to method calls and they will be passed
        to the `bit.ly API`_::
        
        >>> res = api.shorten(domain="j.mp", longUrl="http://www.example.com/foobar.html")
        >>> pprint.pprint(res)
        {'global_hash': 'cITxl0',
        'hash': 'cY4460',
        'long_url': 'http://www.example.com/foobar.html',
        'new_hash': 1,
        'url': 'http://j.mp/cY4460'}
