is there a quick way to get all my timelines t.co links from my timeline, i have 1000s so manually it will take ages. i tried getting the archive file from twitter but it only gives me the expanded urls, also tried some only sites but again only gives me approx x20 urls (maybe due to 'show more')
 
any scraper available for t.co links all scrapers free are for followers or tweet contents
 
Grab your favorite browser. Head over to the Twitter account in question. Scroll down to the end of the timeline (hold down the space button or maybe you can use a jQuery too). Open page source. Copy content. Paste it into an empty file in Notepad++, use the Search/Mark function to mark lines with the "t.co/" pattern in them, remove the unmarked lines (Search/Bookmark/Remove unmarked lines). See if the result needs further cleaning or no. If yes, remove any redundant data with the Search/Replace function or you can use Excel as well for this purpose.

It's one way to do it for free and fairly quick, there might be more elegant solutions out there. :)
 
Thanks guys. Had been looking for this, im pretty good with excel so can clean with ease
