New Twitter Built In Retweet Beta Feature

Today, I was looking at some old Twitter accounts I had and had completely forgotten about. When I logged to one specific account, I realized it was prompting me about a new retweet feature. Retweeting has been alive since the dawn of Twitter, but never built in directly to the website. This feature was apperently in beta, and one of my accounts that I had never used was invited to use. This same incident once happened on YouTube with realtime, so it is kid of exiting to be using beta features like these before they come out. On the Twitter website, next to tweets from people following you, a retweet button appears.


Another interesting feature is on your profile, it shows a retweet section, much like the favorites and direct messages section.
