I encourage people who use tinyurl or other such services to also
post the full link.  Many people including myself are reluctant to
click a link without being able to examine it closely first, because
of the risk of visiting a hostile site.

A note for tinyurl users: you can go to the tinyurl.com website and
set an option (sets a cookie in your browser) so that clicking  a
tinyurl will take you first to a page showing the expanded URL before
you actually go there.

Modern browsers let you do this more easily by simply cut/pasting the
entire wrapped lines into the browser address bar.  They ignore the
line breaks.
