SHUURL: Make “Safe” Short URLs

SHUURL is a free short URL service for creating small compact URL’s that redirect to the original site. It is similar to TinyURL but with one major difference. SHUURL provides you with a screenshot of the link you are about to visit along with a safety guide key, indicating whether the URL you are about to visit is safe or not. The actual link will be shortened and a safety test will tell you if the site is safe or not.
