How to link to a specific tweet when you don't know the user.screen_name?

This has probably been asked, but I can't find it...

I want to link to a specific tweet, such as this:

http://twitter.com/TinyNietzsche/status/69440267110973440

But if @TinyNietzsche changes his screen_name it breaks my link.

Using the API, statuses/show I can get the raw data, and even build a link to twitter using that, but that doesn't really seem efficient.

I can 开发者_如何学JAVAcreate a persistent link to the user by using the redirect:

Is there a way to link a specific tweet that doesn't rely on the user.screen_name?

You can just replace their user name with their user id:
