I know that google only keeps about 3 months of tweets, so if it does give you credit, that wouldn't last too long. Plus of course a lot of urls are shortened, so they don't link directly. Personally I'd just look at the traffic as the bonus, and if your readers like what they see you might find yourself being linked to via other pages too. Karsten, your followers may or may not see @replies, depending on the settings in their twitter accounts. They can choose to see all your tweets (@replies included, regardless who they're to), only the @replies to people they're also following, or even block all @replies. I believe from recent changes at twitter that they consider tweets as replies even if they do start with another word - but then again that could change back, or again, at any time.

Only followers from you who also follow @username will see this reply. If you think this could be interesting for all your followers, simply start with another word. for example: "thanks @username, ...."
