That was like a screaming        banshee to me when the tiny urls first emerged. But the folks        at TinyUrl do a nice job in providing a Preview option. Also,        at least the most popular services now vet the links too.       --        ../|ug       --- OpenXP 5.0.49        * Origin: Mobile?
