Yet Another TinyURL clone Enter a long URL to make short

Or enter a short URL to make long.

Nice to know they never expire, unlike TinyURL

Yeah, like my circa 1980's American Airlines frequent flyer miles never expire, or for that matter, your [insert your circling-the-drain American (the country, not necessarily the company) airline here] miles now before they exercise their Chapter [ghodknowswhat-IANAL] ability to render them useless.
/rant

Ditto what OneOliveShort said ... or potentially worse if they turn to the dark side and use the short URL's that people use to redirect to something of their own liking ...

I'd like one that would show the top level domain name in the url, like http://mediumurl.com/somewhere.com/a8df5sd

Because, you know, behind every tinyurl/doiop there might be a goatse.

All I want is a Greasemonkey script or something that takes these short urls and expands them out again. Surfing the web shouldn't be a game of russian roulette.
