How to prefill the Twitter status box (“What are you doing?”)

I’m working on a website where I need to prefill a certain message in the ‘What are you doing?’ textarea from Twitter.

Here is the solution … redirect the user to :

http://twitter.com/home?status=YOUR_URL_ENCODED_MESSAGE

for example : http://twitter.com/home?status=this%20is%20a%20test

Hope this will help someone
