That is a good URL, Nikola. While it provides information, I think it is not enough for the average users because they do not notice it. They seek for post info on the web page itself.

Hashtags are great but I also think the square bracket tags add great value to the tweets.

I, for example, leave date information in my blog post URLs; if someone looks for /blog/2009/07/blog_post_name, he could easily extract useful information about the creation date of that particular post (also, only date parameters in the URL provide an archive).

For tweets, I add hashtags to some of them, like #quote or #thought or #blog when referring to quotes and thoughts, as well as my blog posts. Also, #listening is for music, #reading is for books, #watching is for movies or online videos etc.

Yup, same here, Ivan.

I’m also noticing a lot of app store and mailto links in websites that give you no real of clue where you’re gonna end up.

Nice tips, lost a count how many times I have clicked on tweet link which led to App Store page, and tweeter didn’t mention that, frustrating!

I like the way you think!

Cole: yes, that's frustrating. I wrote a bit about that in Don't publish undated content. I've also noticed some (popular) blogs use the format Jul 29th. This also does not provide enough information. I am assuming the date applies to the current year, but I can't really know that.

I was just thinking about the date thing the other day. I was on a blog that actually didn’t have any date, frustrated the absolute hell out of me. As I usually check the date before reading, I left without even reading anything.

“To let his followers know his tweet is not in Croatian, he uses the twitter tag [lang=hr]”

Should be: is in Croatian.
