[twitter-dev] Is this a bug for referencing status urls?

[Orian Marx (@orian)]

It seems one can reference any valid status by id using the following
URL formula *if* you are signed in to twitter.com:

http://twitter.com/#!/this_can_be_anything/statuses/38671791899684864

but this will lead to a "sorry this page doesn't exist" if you are not
logged in. This seems like strange behavior to me?

This was pointed out to me by @samichaels.

This isn't a bug so much as a not-yet completely implemented feature.
#NewTwitter knows what to do in this situation. #OldTwitter does not. A
logged out user is still on #OldTwitter.
