Here it is, I've re-tweet in twitter.com. Looks cool but...

This morning, connecting to twitter, I saw a new infor;ation on top of the window : twitter added to my account as beta group member the new "Retweet" functions.

It looks good, and give added value : instead of the classical "RT xxx", my followers will see the initial tweet with a small mention that show I've re-tweeted it.

It will be more "readable" for followers, especially in case of multiple re-tweets
We will not face anymore the "more than 140 characters" issues when re-tweeting !

The inconvenient I see is that using this, I cannot add a comment (to explain why I re-tweeted).

But maybe it's not so important !

Hmm I comment on almost every RT to make it more clear or suite it to my style... Hope @Twitter reads this and maybe figure out how to make this possible :-)

Yes, I agree with you. By the way, I'm sure it's a first version, and twitter will enhance it soon.
