I agree with that. It is best to list the entire URL to the actual page. If you want to enter a tiny url for those with smartphones then send them to the actual page rather than an intermediary page. Paranoia is sometimes justified, especially for those of us who lived through the era when legitimate URLs were often hijacked in the mid-1990s. We are even more paranoid of tiny urls and for a very good reason.
