Both of those can be very handy, no doubt about that... but they can also be 
mildly dangerous.  I have a policy of NEVER clicking on a tinyurl or snipurl 
while at work.  The problem with both is that they completely hide what the 
original URL was.  So the link to "how to setup a firewall" that you *think* 
you are following might really be goatse (or worse).

So, handy.. but I still prefer the long URLs, even if I have to cut and paste 
to get them to work.
