Shortened urls have their place. I like using them for Google maps links. If
you are posting a short url to e-mail, it would be courteous to include the
base url in the message text. That way, one can search for it later.

And another reason I hate this tinyurl thing... I know someone on a
list I'm on referenced a certain site.  Can I search my email for
links to that site?  Nooooo*.  They used a freakin' tinyurl or bitly
or whatever.
