How do I get a link to a Tweet in the new Twitter? - DaveZ - 10-02-2012 12:08 PM

With the new Twitter, it's all fancy roll overs and side bars, but I am darned if I can't just right click on a Tweet to get a direct Tweet link.

Help!

Here's how to find a Tweet's URL:
• Locate the Tweet anywhere on Twitter.com.
• Click on the Tweet's timestamp. Below each Tweet, you'll see information about when the Tweet was posted. We call this the "timestamp" (see below).
• You'll land on a page showing only that Tweet. This link does not expire. Here is the link to the Tweet shown below: http://twitter.com/Support/status/19606107137
• Copy the URL that shows up in your browser address bar.
• Paste the URL in a message to anyone with whom you want to share the Tweet.

Now, you can direct friends to any individual Tweet! It's that easy.

You can also click onto a Tweet's permanent link (permalink, for short) to see:
• The exact time the Tweet was posted.
• The service or application used to post the Tweet (Twitter.com, Twitter for iPhone, Tweetdeck, etc.)
• A sampling of the users who retweeted the Tweet.
