worksite uses wordpress, that may interest the adventurous web-engineer dude.

But I gotta say, thanks for the insight on the other side of the world. Net Nanny, hilarious.

We're just about to add the re-tweet button to our blog as we've had a few re-tweets lately and they've really helped us to build interest.

Awesome stuff...however the data is a bit "noisy" for small business owners as your goal isn't necessarily just to get re-tweeted unless you are hoping to establish a little brand recognition out of a random tweet. It is much more difficult to get a specific promotional message for your business re-tweeted. Show me some data on how to accomplish that and I will love you forever!

LOVE the use of social media metrics in this post - it's so valuable to take a look at what others are doing to see what's successful and use that as lessons learned. I will take note that novelty and higher education levels seem to be a factor in retweetability. Thanks!

Might be an interesting study to find out how long it takes for these retweets to "go around". Like I got the tweet originally two days ago and now it is showing up again from another group of tweeple. Interesting study in dynamics and the movement of information. Have a beautiful day, Debby - loves to retweet heartfelt, soul lifting thoughts, and healing information that benefits the community.

Getting re tweeted is most important. It is somewhat a science but i still think you have to have something to say http://nickquinlan.com/

This is a Retweet!HOW TO:Get #Retweeted on Twitter- http://bit.ly/fVLpA via RT @Tweye @Jason_Pollock: @mashable ~ and on down the line. Fabulous analytical breakdown with more than we could wish to know, but now do. Many good hints here. I love retweeting worthy articles, the best quotes, helpful information, sharing - basically it's a news clipper service with a little moral boosting. I work on shortening the tweet to get it to fit. Always the best articles can be found on Mashable. Thank you Pete.

Appears that being reTweeted and success have many of the same variables. Be brief but use words that share more than one meaning. Offer a place to go, some intention, at worst case an implied call to action.

Nice post, really useful information! I don't really see how reading stats is related to being a viral marketing specialist though.

I hear so many talk about the importance of engaging quality links and content, and how being conversational is more key than simply retweeting content. The commentary here is a perfect example of the opposite.
First, don't get me wrong there is nothing absolutely incorrect about trying to get link backs and traffic to your site but some of the responses on this commentary are simply just a piece of words with a link in the end to 'spam' the comments.
You didn't even try to be conversational or relevant. I think some of you are forgetting the essence of social conversation while gaining traffic for yourself.

Great post. I often look for interesting things to RT...things that apply to current issues or things that seem to be really helpful to others. I rarely retweet a tweet with a link to a funny picture or a youtube video. I guess I'm still not in love with YouTube even thought I know that's narrow minded.

I don't RT profanity and I don't RT "quotes"....so sick of inspirational quotes. Maybe I'm just getting old.

Yes! Very good insight @mashable and @danzarrella! As one would definitely expect, word of mouth is hinged on the value add that a personal referral provides. So it’s imperative we recognize and acknowledge that principles of new media as we move forward, otherwise it becomes just something else to do and is a drain on society instead of a benefit to it.
