Twitter is set to adopt the reTweets. You will be soon able to reTweet by just clicking a button and that too in a new way. reTweeting is a great way to share someone’s thoughts/useful links with your followers. As Twitter announced on its official blog, the new RTs will show the original Tweet of the user you reTweeted in your streamline. Means your followers will be see the original Tweet along with your name in it.
The new way of reTweeting looks good and useful. But it may also lead users to confusions. By reTweeting the first Tweeter would be getting exposer to more audience and that is good too. It can also help you to connect with more interesting people and discover new things. But it may also work opposite. When you are following a lot of people on Twitter but you take care of only a few user Tweets, then you may ignore some good reTweets of your friends because they will show the person you don’t know or don’t care of. Well, this is the first phase of ‘Project Retweet’, wait for more news from Twitter. This is how Twitter plans.
