very interesting! thanks for sharing... can this be used in a research citation? - does it link back to the website where the whole url is then linked?

Yes, Susan, the tiny URL is just that. It is the same URL as the original just made small. It takes you to the long address.
It can be used in a research citation since it is merely the address and when typed in will take you to the source you are citing.
Of course the Name of the link will give people the source information that is most important then the address is just a vehicle to that place. Lee
