title: Twitter Follow Link
body: <p>How do I create a link that will automatically make a user follow a certain Twitter user if they're logged in or send them to Twitter to login first if they're not? I had found how to do this about month or 2 ago but can't find it again. I think it was something basic like a link or a form post to something like twitter.com/[user]/follow.</p>
  
  <p>I've looked at the API, but I'd need the user to authenticate themselves on my site, and I don't want to deal with that. I just want them to authenticate directly on Twitter and not worry about it. The way I had found was nice and simple and I just want to find that again.</p>
