I recently finished the Front-End Web Development program at General Assembly in San Francisco. My final project turned out being a quick, easy, and free way to convert a Tweet into various properly formatted citations. Inspired by a Hacker News post a few months back: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3751295

Very cool. It would be nice to be able to link to your representation of a particular tweet. Also, expand the shortened links.

Thanks for the kind words. What do you mean by "link to your representation of a particular tweet?" Provide a unique link to the user to be able to return to the result of their request at a later time? I considered expanding the shortened links, but I chose not to because of the ugliness of some links...I may add in some options for the user to make the decision.

Yes. Well, more like link to send along with "cite it like that" message but yes.
