YouTubeTweeter makes it easy to embed videos on your Twitter page.

Of course, you can use the many URL shortening services out there to shorten the YouTube video URL (for example) and can tweet about a video that you liked. The problem is that when your followers click on the link they’ll be taken to the corresponding video site and they can view the video only from there.

YouTubeTweeter is a service that helps you share videos on Twitter but with a twist. When you click on the video URL instead of navigating away from your Twitter page it keeps you in the same page and will embed the video as kind of like an overlay so you can watch the video without leaving the page. Once you are done watching the video and when you dismiss the overlay you’ll see your Twitter page where you left off. As I said, it’s not a service that makes a huge difference but certainly gives a tiny bit of better user experience to your followers, particularly when it comes to watching videos on Twitter.

Start by navigating to YouTubeTweeter.com and enter your Twitter name.

YouTubeTweeter will ask you to choose the video service from which you intend to share the video. Choose the service that you want to share the video from.

Once you choose the service, YouTubeTweeter will ask you to enter the URL of the video.

Once you enter it, it will do all the URL shortening and then will present you with a page where you get to see the shortened URL along with choices of testing it and/or tweeting it.

You can test the video to make sure you are not spamming your followers (accidentally!). Once you are happy you can tweet the video and your tweet will appear on your Twitter stream. Note: you might want to adjust the text of the tweet to fit your preference.

When anyone clicks on the URL on the tweet they’ll be presented with an overlay that embeds the video within the same page (instead of navigating away). Once you watch the video you can use any of the dismiss buttons to dismiss the overlay and get back to your Twitter page.

As I said, YouTubeTweeter is not a huge service that makes a huge difference in your Twitter experience but certainly can make it a bit easier to your followers to watch the videos that you tweet about.
