How can I link to my app in the App Store (iTunes)?

Question

I want to have a feature in my app where the user can send an email to a friend with the iTunes URL to my application. How is it possible?

Thanks.

This code generates the app store link automatically based on the app name, nothing else is required, drag & drop:

NSCharacterSet *trimSet = [[NSCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLKMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"] invertedSet];    
NSArray *trimmedAppname = [[NSString stringWithString:[[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@"CFBundleName"]] componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet:trimSet];
NSString *appStoreLink = @"http://itunes.com/app/"; 
for (NSString *part in trimmedAppname) appStoreLink = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@",appStoreLink,part];
NSLog(@"App store URL:%@",appStoreLink);

It gives you a link like http://itunes.com/app/angrybirds
