Making URLs Longer

Adverts by Google

longurl.org Making URLs LongerEverytime I follow a tinyurl.com or bit.ly link I always wonder if there’s a nasty website waiting. By which I mean one that might try and infect my computer by downloading malware. Longurl.org does the opposite, it extracts information from the linked page so you can get a feel for what the link is pointing to.

I know tinyurl.com has preview links that no one seems to use! there’s not just tinyurl.com or bit.ly nut nearly 200 url shortening services out there. There’s a full list on the longurl.org site of the ones that it handles. It’s nicely done and is a useful free service.
