Unrelated query: Does snipr.com provide a preview style redirect link,
as does snurl.com, so users could see to where the link goes before
going there? With snurl.com redirect links, they look like
http://preview.snurl.com/<idstring>. If the user didn't bother to
select the preview style when they created the redirect link, other
users could change the http://snurl.com/<idstring> to a preview style
of http://preview.snurl.com/<idstring> (i.e., they could insert the
"preview" host in the URL). The user then goes to a web page at
snurl.com that shows them the link to which they will be redirected.
With the preview page showing the target URL, users know before going
to a site as to what site they will be going. That lets them choose if
it is a site that they want to visit. Some boob could provide a
redirect link to some hardcore porn or warez site, or especially a
temporary Google private group, whose web page merely contains a link
to another malicious site. If the user can see to where the redirect
link goes, they may decide not to go there.
tinyurl.com doesn't have the preview feature for its redirect links and
why I quit using that service. I don't see that snipr.com has a
preview feature, either. That's why I started using snurl.com.
Hopefully I don't forget to use the preview.snurl.com/<idstring> URL
since I can't expect other users to know about the preview function.
