By nature, these URLs do not disclose the source of the content. However, once ported to a larger medium like a Blog or Forum, they need to disclose their final target. A need of the hour is to get some Plugin or Service that can either Re-Expand them to original or Tooltip them with the original URL where word limit is not a constraint. 

Example: http://bit.ly/b2NoCF becomes http://bit.ly/b2NoCF (with tooltip, hover to view) or http://timeline-studios.com/blogs/2010/02/i-would-have-loved-if-my-mobile-and-tv-did-this/ (complete URL)

WordPress Plugin Anyone?
