Maybe. It depends on how bored I am.

I'm #2. There was already a "No" vote.

Durn. I need a new hat.

My post was just a joke. It always amuses me when a design conflicts
with a desire, if that's not too vague. In other words, the OP
apparently (though he may also have been joking) wanted people to go
look at a site, but the way he posted about it almost insured that no
one would go look. So I chuckled at it. (Naturally, some took it
seriously and flailed about with the usual cries of horror about spam,
but they were as irrelevant as usual.) -aem

I have absolutely no idea what this is all about. I must have either
missed it or have a key word filtered out.

There was a thread a few days ago where the OP had a 'mystery' tinyurl
in it; aem made a joke about it...

Anyway, bottom line is this: if somebody you don't know from Adam (or
anybody you do know for that matter) posts just a tinyurl link (i.e.
you have no idea what/where you'll end up) would/do you click on it?

FWIW, I agree with some here that say if they "know" the poster they'll
probably click on the link.

However, if I'm posting a link myself, I usually put in the full link
*plus* the tinyurl (for those who have newsreaders that 'wrap' long
URLs over more than one line, which can render them 'un-click-able')
and I see quite a few others do the same. Mind you, even using a full
link doesn't always give an accurate indication of what to expect. Life
is full of little risks, ain't it? <veg>

Speaking of rules and standards...

Did you get that new survey idea I e-mailed yesterday? I got a delivery
delay message. Not exactly a bounce, but close. It was an idea for a
survey on cooking in the nude. I thought it would be amusing. ;-)

Nope. Our ISP was doing 'Sunday maintenance' for a couple of hours
yesterday, so it might have been intercepted by the Vogons...

You left out an important part. As I remember (and I'm too lazy to look
it up), the whole post shouted SPAM!

I still wouldn't click on it, if I didn't know the poster and it was
obviously a spam post. The spammer can easily include an absurdly long
URL that goes to something related to food that looks interesting, and a
tinyURL that points to spam. I wouldn't put it past them, either.

I agree with the practice of posting both long and short links... Tiny
also has a "preview" type link that I find very annoying, but I guess
people who are nervous can feel better with. Personally, I'm in the
don't care range. I don't click on suspect links most of the time and
when I do my AV pre-checks it for viruses. I'm a pretty safe
consumer. I haven't ever had a significant virus and what I've had
was something stuck off in a temp file (once or twice only). <shrug>
I'm not scared of that.

My DD's computer came home from college loaded with hijackers, Trojans
and viruses (at least I thought they were viruses). It took me a
while and I had to go to a Hijack This forum, but I cleaned it up on
my own without resorting to reformatting.
