Retweets – Twitter style

We started showing the first timeline of the Twitter-style new Retweets feature.

Your Tweetvisor menu now has a new item, “Retweets By Others” (might need to refresh the whole Tweetvisor page), that will display the most recent retweets posted by your friends.

What is different in Tweetvisor compared to current Twitter.com layout for the retweets, is that we display the picture of the person who retweeted near the picture of the original author. This way you will probably be less confused when you will see a tweet from a person who might not be in your friends’ list.

Not all Twitter Retweet features are available via API as of now, but we will surely implement them as soon as they will be released.

Our current thought is that these new Retweet features will be offered in addition to the classic RT function you are using today. It will all depend on how well this Twitter Retweet will be done and also on our users’ reactions and feedback.
