LongURLPlease.com - Lengthen Short URLs Easily

We all have had the misfortune of resorting to a shortened URL some time or the other only to come across web contents that are frankly best left alone. In order not to go through the same experience again, a service such as the one being reviewed right now will come in more than handy.





Generally speaking, through the site you will be able to access information such as the full URL right before you click, and realize A) Whether you have been there before or not; and B) Whether it is one of these sites that you should better stand aloof from.

Moreover, such a service can be implemented in a plethora of ways. To me, the most flexible and convenient one is installing the provided bookmarklet by dragging it to your bookmarks toolbar. On the other hand, if you are a Firefox user you can also resort to the provided plug-in.

So far, more than 30 different services are supported. These include rubyurl.com, zi.ma and snipurl.com. In that sense, it can be said that if you opt to give Long URL Please a try chances are you will have your needs duly covered.
