Does Twitter have any short name like Facebook's fb.com
? It would be easier to advertise Twitter accounts like Facebook pages.
twttr.com
redirects to twitter.com
, so you could use twttr.com/accountname
. But that only saves two letters and may not be recognizable to some.
However, the @accountname
format is pretty universally recognized as the format of a Twitter account. That's what I'd use.
t.co
is Twitter's URL-shortener and wouldn't be useful for this.

Also there's a certificate mismatch when using https. Twitter's cert is valid for twitter.com and www.twitter.com but not the twttr.com avatar. – freethinker Oct 26 '14 at 22:09
