Providing full message links in tweets and facebook posts

Several customers have asked about adding full message links in tweets and facebook posts.  I am now in the process of developing a web application that will allow for links in the posted messages.

Initial tests look good.  It does require a public facing IIS webserver with an associated domain name to process the embedded links.

Here is a sample post I made from my test twitter account. (http://www.twitter.com/kb4mdd)

NWS has issued a Area Forecast Discussion

In this example, I am using the domain name "a.emwin.net" to host the data feed.
