In law, a redirect is the reexamination of a witness by the lawyer who originally called them to testify -- that is, the one who delivered the direct examination. It occurs immediately after the cross-examination of the witness. The judge is not typically obliged to grant a lawyer's request for a redirect.
In the HTTP computer protocol used by the World Wide Web, a redirect is a response with a status code of 301 or 302. Such responses are used to indicate to the user agent that the requested resource has permanently (301) or temporarily (302) been moved to another location.
A lot of sites provide redirect services to shorten long URLs. For example Fype.com (http://fype.com) and TinyURL.com (http://tinyurl.com).
