gistfile1.txt
When accessing short URL links e.g. from Twitter.app, Safari's History records
only the shortened http://t.co/HASHKEY address. This makes it impossible to
find previously viewed pages.
The address bar is redirected to the expanded URI, but the redirected
destination is not recorded in history, and can't be found by page title, URL,
or indexed content.
Furthermore, reloading the destination page also doesn't add the page to
history. The only workaround is to copy the address to a NEW tab and load it
there.
