That URL works fine for me. Here's what I see on my screen:
<<<                                                               uh3t home page
   Seeking employment
   WAP login form                                                    
   Contact me: e-mail Twitter LinkedIn
   How to remember my tiny URL
   Services I do/will/might provide, for: desktop/laptop cell-phone
   Good services others provide
The first line with the <<< is the WebPage title. The rest is the
rendered contents of the Web page. (This is how it appears in lynx,
the text-mode browser for VT100 terms on Unix.)

How does that differ from what you see on your screen?

It's possible your Web browser isn't following HTTP redirection.
If that's what your problem is, try these two ideas:

- Use this URL instead:  http://preview.tinyurl.com/uh3t
That gives you an explicit Web page with link to actual Web site,
instead sending your browser a HTTP redirection header.

The preview page has some boilerplate, then this preview section:
  Preview of TinyURL.com/uh3t
     This TinyURL redirects to:
       http://www.rawbw.com/~rem/WAP.html
     Proceed to this site.
:then more boilerplate.

After you get that page, you click on the link to proceed to my Web site.

- Try using the direct URL:  http://www.rawbw.com/~rem/WAP.html

I know tinyurl is issuing the correct redirect header to my Web
page, which is then sending valid HTML, because the The W3C Markup
Validation Service at http://validator.w3.org/ obeys the tinyurl
redirection and then tells me:
  This document was successfully checked as HTML 3.2!
        Result:    Passed
       Address:    http://www.rawbw.com/~rem/WAP.html________________
       Encoding:   us-ascii [(detect automatically)___________]
       Doctype:    HTML 3.2 [(detect automatically)________________]
     Root Element: HTML

I'm curious whether either of the tricks listed above solves your
problem.
