Assuming you''re using Rails 3, read the guide on routing:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html. It''s very helpful and will
explain how to connect a new action like you have here. The upshot is to
route it as a member action that can be invoked on a specific Message. Then
you''ll have a nice named route you can use in your view, like
tweet_message_path(@message).

You can specify this ''tweet'' method as a member action of your
controller in routes.rb
