It's come to my attention that twitter links aren't scraped and added as part of the markdown response. I understand that constructing an image similar to that of the medium blog isn't something you can do with markdown, but if we could at-least grab the tweet link that would be great.

Example.

Agreed that it would be good to pull these into the markdown response. Unfortunately it's not as simple as it first seems though as Medium uses a third-party embedding service called Embedly which pulls in the media via an iframe. I'm sure it's not impossible to extract the information but it's not as easy as the other elements.
