How to reveal shortened URL destinations

When sharing links, images and videos on microblogging sites such as Twitter and Plurk, links to these resources are automatically shortened to a random new URL like bit.ly, is.gd, post.ly and tinyURL. But on some cases, tiny services are blocked in some countries although the original long URL is not blocked. This is where Untiny.me service comes in. Once you enter the shortend URL and click extract, Untiny retrieves the original URL from it.


Here a sample result where I extracted the original url from "http://tinyurl.com/nf8uth"



Try untiny.me for yourself.
