User reviews

"Automatically shows the full URL when hovering over a shortened URL." True if the URL shortener is bit.ly or tinyurl.com and those 2 ONLY. I don't call such an extension a URL expander when it handles 2 (TWO) shorteners when dozens and more exist. Call that 'URL Limited Expander' if you wish, and let not users waste their time.
