Each tweet on Twitter has a unique URL. You can use this link to navigate directly to the Tweet or to refer someone directly to any Tweet. These direct status links make it easier to share individual Tweets by email or IM.

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".
  • 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 show up in your browser.
  • Paste the URL in a message to anyone with whom you want to share the Tweet.
