title: Rails 3 Twitter Anywhere For Profile Links?
body: <p>I was using the Twitter Widget for the longest time but I was looking to step it up a level and add additional styling and filtering. Recently I got started with the Rails <a href="http://twitter.rubyforge.org/" rel="nofollow">Twitter Gem</a> and so far so good, but I wanted to be able to link back to profiles wherever <code>@username</code> appears.</p>
  
  <p>Looking around it seems that <a href="https://dev.twitter.com/docs/anywhere/welcome" rel="nofollow">Twitter Anywhere</a> is the way to go, but I was wondering if there was a better implementation in a Rails environment? Perhaps a gem that loads the required JS files and provides helper methods? </p>
  
  <p>Also I should note that I don't necessarily require all of the functionality that the anywhere api offers, at the moment my main focus is just to provide the @username links (though it is certainly nice to have the option for future expansion). </p>
