You can only open the app itself if it supports a custom URL-scheme. Posting from Tweetbot is enabled by opening the url tweetbot:///post?

Alot of pages lists the urls you need to interact with other apps, see for instance http://handleopenurl.com/ or http://wiki.akosma.com/IPhone_URL_Schemes for other examples and apps
