Tweet a Link is a Web2.0 service with only one thing to offer i.e. to share or announce a website/webpage link and title to your twitter followers/buddies. While there are a lot of other ways to do this but those are not as simple as tweet a link is.
You need to just login tweet a link with your twitter user id and password and a bookmarklet link will be provided to you which can be dragged and dropped to your bookmark toolbar and that’s it.
Now whenever you find a web page on the internet which you may like to share with your twitter buddies, all you have to do is to click the tweet a link bookmarklet while staying on the page and a new window will open (as shown above) with the title and truncated (shortened) URL of that page. Press tweet this and its done. As simple as that.
Unfortunately I could only use the service on Firefox and opening the tweet a link in internet explorer only gave me a blank blue page. Shame, but I can only suggest to switch to Firefox if you want to use this as well as plethora of other useful applications.
Click TweetaLink to use the service.

The Twitter Toolbar for Firefox has a tweet think link in it’s drop down. Makes for pretty easy linking, and great for posting tweets while browsing.
Hey Rob,
Thanks for stopping by….and yes twitter toolbar has this ability but this would mean adding another tool bar to the already cluttered header area of firefox. Thats why I say tweet a link is the simplest of all.
