We have seen lots of URL shortening services in place now and these services mostly came into picture with micro blogging services like Twitter, Facebook etc. The problem with these shortened URLs is that you cannot actually find out where you are navigating, sometimes these links end you up in an embarrassing situation. LongURL Mobile Expander is a Firefox add-on which reveals shortened URLs. The add-on is based on the fact that you should always know where a link takes you before clicking on it.
Once you have installed the add-on it detects for any shortened URLs and displays the actual URL when you hover on top the URL. The add-on supports more than 200 shortening services (details here).
When you click the more link in the pop up, it shows you more details on the URL like keywords, meta description, conversations surrounding this URL etc.
LongURL is a pretty useful add-on if you are dealing with lots of shortened URLs.
