Project Retweet



What do you think about this?

1. You can see if someone retweets a link with a small line that says “Retweeted by ___” under the tweet and the time when the tweet was sent.

2. Hovering over a tweet will soon make two options appear: Reply and Retweet. Reply is already supported by Twitter – it’s that little arrow that appears on the right when you hover over a tweet.

3. Clicking on the “Retweet” button will confirm if you really want to retweet this tweet to all of your followers.

4. The retweet is done. It apparently shows the people that have retweeted it in your timeline. We’re unsure as to how many people can be listed in the “Retweeted by” section of any tweet.

The big difference is how the retweet is displayed. The new system will not have the typical “RT @Mashable” that we have all grown accustomed to, but will instead move it to the bottom of tweets. This will be a shocking change for most Twitter users.
 
Para quem ainda não sabe o que é RT:
 
Retweeting, for those who are not familiar, is the practice of sharing interesting links and tweets on Twitter by adding “RT” plus the originator’s username at the start of the tweet (i.e. “RT @Mashable” or “RT @BenParr“). We explain retweets in-depth in HOW TO: Retweet on Twitter.
