How do a post a specific twitter tweet into a comment with a direct link?
I occasionally enter some contest online and some of them want you to post a tweet about the contest and then post a link of your Tweet on their website. How do get a direct link to your specific Tweet to post on another website? I cannot figure it out.

- You have to go to your specific Tweet, right click and COPY the URL, go back and PASTE that URL for the link. AND If it were me, I would do this: Repost this question in the category- Computers and the Internet Sub category- Internet---sub sub-Twitter They are on the category list you scanned over before picking this category at the end.....OR if this was the " suggested category" picked by the AI program, you need to click on "All Categories" and choose the appropriate one. I know it can be confusing....so many categories...BUT Posting in the appropriate category will expose your question to many people who have experience and/or expertise in your subject. That way you'll get more/ better answers. The Yahoo Products category, sub category Yahoo Answers (Where You Are Now ) is where we Q/A about the website itself. You know, bugs, glitches, website operations etc. Hope this helps....JT
- You can try to search your tweet on http://search.twitter.com , if you got the match one, you can see the link view tweet, that's the link you want. If not, well, you can see a tweet do have a link, in this format http://twitter.com/{username}/statuses/{status_id} , like this http://twitter.com/utwitbook/statuses/4468153961 , to get the id, you can move your mouse over the tweet reply link, you can see a link in your browser status bar,(in firefox, you can right click, and copy the link) like this twitter.com/?status=@search_twit%20&in_reply_to_status_id=4468303443&in_reply_to=search_twit , see the in_reply_to_status_id? that's it.
