With the new layout with the #sidey search bar the http://twitter.com/home page forwards to http://twitter.com/timeline/home
This breaks those links that are pre-filling the tweet by linking to / home So before this would work: http://twitter.com/home?status=hello+world But on the new @home page with the search in the sidebar, it doesn't work (doesn't prefill the input box). It has to be: http://twitter.com/timeline/home?status=hello+world On the Twitter Support page where it talks about the new "mentions" instead of @replies it has a link that says "Take me back to Twitter.com" http://help.twitter.com/portal But that "Take me back to Twitter.com" links to: http://twitter.com/timeline/home (which gives a 404 for users who *don't* have the new #sidey searchbar) All of that to say, which will be the correct way to link going forward? I know there's a few apps that prefill the box for the user that may need to be updated.
