twitterfeed has so far always used TinyURL for URL shortening. A number of people have asked for support for alternative URL shorteners, as some of them contain additional features like stats and tracking.
The two alternatives mentioned/requested in the GetSatisfaction forums were tweetburner/twurl and SnipURL/snipr.
So, as of today, twitterfeed allows you to select these as alternatives to TinyURL. The default setting for any existing twitter feeds is still TinyURL, but you can edit this on a per-feed basis from within “my feeds”.

As ever, please let me know if you find any problems related to this or any other aspect of the twitterfeed service. The best place to share these is at GetSatisfaction.
