Twitter Anomaly

Written on August 29, 2010 by Francis in Just for Fun

It’s on the Screen the “Retweet” button to push or not to push that is the question?
It’s a “Retweet” button?
What can it possibly do?
If there is nothing in it for me, what’s the use!?
It is just another tweet!
Just another blogpost!
You can see it’s been “Retweeted” so why bother!

A “Retweet” is an anomaly in the Twitterverse and here is why:  It’s taking a chance! It might bring you follows or unfollows but here is what it has done for me:

I read blogs ALL the time and decided to do it! To push the Retweet button after I had left the comment! The rest was an anomaly!

I Retweeted @JoyceCherrier ‘s blog and had others join me on Fitness conversations and chats with Joyce!  I Retweeted @PaulSteele ‘s blog and outdoor adventure chats began and people thanked me for sharing the site with them!  Retweets on @ciaoflorentina , @ciaobella50 , @jessicanorthey , @toddweisscfa , @organicguru , @erinlynn76 , @andersonrob , @blogomomma have led to more follows and amazing chats!!

I am a fan of their blogs and benefits poured in for being a humble reader!  What’s even better is the friendships I have made by a simple “Retweet”!  Push it today! Go to your favorite sites and see what a simple Retweet might get you!  I also “Retweet” tweets that make me laugh out loud!! These are my favorite and there can never be too many!  I was “Retweeted” by @tonystevens once and I could not thank all the Retweets that followed! Or keep up for that matter!

Twitter for me is about being myself and sharing tweets that represent me and topics I enjoy! Retweeting is a measure on Twitter that says:  ”I liked it enough to share”!  The magic of the “Retweet” is what I find inspiring! Friendships, connections, and the debates that follow the “retweet” are priceless!

Are you a Retweeter? Whose your favorite blogger that you just HAVE to Retweet? I would love to know! :)

P.S. Not responsible for the “Retweet” magic this post might bring you! ;)

    I RT all the time and thank people who find my tweets interesting enough to share with their followers. It is inspirational to see the generosity of others. It’s an art to RT the right stuff and especially blogs deserve to be RTed. Very R-T-stic! ;-)

    Thanks so much for the shoutout Francis! I am a big fan of the retweet and for all the reasons you stated. It’s not just about repeating a great link, the retweet is a major connector on twitter. When you RT, you say I like your blog post, I think other people would like/need this info and I’m a supporter/friend. I’ve read so many great posts (like yours) thanks to an RT. Great post Francis! I’ll be RTing it! :D

    Loved it!! For those of us who relish spending time in the “Twitter Stream”, the re-tweet is powerful little gesture! Thanks for this great post which I have, of course, re-tweeted.

    I love to Retweet and there are so many people who tweet such amazing stuff (including you). I’m so glad there’s a RT button!!

    ;-)

    I agree that I wish more people realized the whole “reciprocity” issue…..

    Who do I like to RT the most? I RT myself..just kidding. I also have found a lot of great people on Twitter and I could not agree more! When you RT, it takes such a little bit of effort and it gives you so much in return! Thank you for such a wonderful post!

    I’m hardly ever on Twitter so I don’t think too much of retweeting posts. I’m going to be more mindful of it now.
