Helpful Hints to Retweeting

Hi everyone,

Just a couple things I find helpful in order to properly retweet:

1. Tweet something first. This ensures your post will be less than 140 characters and also shortens long URLs.
2. Copy your tweet and paste it to the discussion thread but begin the post with "RT @(your twitter name)" so others can quickly and easily retweet your post.

Hope this helps! Thank you to everyone who has retweeted for me! I truly appreciate it! :)

Thanks Cherise. I just posted a similar request in the Twitter This Please thread. I would love to be able to retweet everyone's message but if it goes over the 140 I would have to shorten it and how would I know what can and can't be removed from the tweet. Ideally, a post of 130 is great and leaves room for the RT @......... that begins the thread.

If I am tweet-challenged;( can someone assist me or is this not the place to request that? Thanks everyone.

That is so cool. I never knew about the + at the end to check your stats.
Thanks
