Comments on: Twitter’s New RT Feature http://sw14group.com/wzzy/2009/11/twitters-new-rt-feature/ Hello, gorgeous. Welcome to my random ramblings.

Some other thoughts: 1) The Retweet link should not be under the Favourite star as that is where Reply has always sat. Bad usability design. 2) In my view, you should also get the Retweet in your own timeline, to give you the marker as to when you decided to retweet it. 3) When you reply to a Retweet, it now send the reply to the original poster. This may or may not be what you wanted to do, but you should at least be given the choice of replying to the original poster or the retweeter (who you probably know better and want to discuss the subject with?)
