Hi Omar, Sorry for the confusion -- we recommend Web Intents as we've developed the Tweet Intent specifically for this purpose -- let us know what tweaks you think the display needs to "look good" in a full browser tab. Intents are optimized to load quickly and service the user's intent as efficiently as possible -- the old way requires a more significant load time and invites the user to engage in all kinds of other fun Twitter activity aside from tweeting -- maybe they'll even forget why you sent them there in the first place.
This is a bug and while I don't have an ETA on when it will be fixed, it was not intentional and this old hack has not been deprecated. @episod <http://twitter.com/episod> - Taylor Singletary On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 5:34 PM, omegdadi <omegd...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey There, > > +1.
