Idea: tiny url age verification wrapper

[frisco2]

Say, I want to share an adult content site with some one. I want to be able to wrap it in a tiny url that will first show a warning page, before sending the person there.

Balance collected in this jar will go to Tny.im creator to develop this feature.

By (at least US) law doesn't there need to be a warning before adult content is displayed at all? I don't see why this needs to be part of the short url.

Just go short url -> adult page.  The adult page will check cookies or sessions or w/e and if none is found, display the warning page, otherwise it will show the content.

I'm not sure why you need what you are asking for.


For tiny url, I am also pretty sure that you can just put a "+" at the end of the url and it will show a preview page first.

http://bitly.com/HUyAAk+ instead of http://bitly.com/HUyAAk gives a description of the page instead of automatically redirecting.

Ok, I like the "+" idea. Basically, say if you want to email someone a link with some sexy girls, and you want to tell the guy -- don't open at work. Then you could send a modified link like that.

or just put nsfw next to the link...
