Seems strange that links in Jetpack’s Twitter Widget wouldn’t open in new window by default, but if like us you find this annoying and would like to open the links in a new window here is a jQuery snippit that you can add to your page(s) to resolve the problem:-

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready( function($) {
  jQuery('.widget_twitter a').attr('target', '_blank');
});
</script>
