Best Practices for Retweeting

Under each displayed tweet, there will appear a number of icons, one of which is the Retweet icon.

Click this will offer a choice between 'Retweet' and 'Retweet with comment'. Jjust clicking 'Retweet' will publish the original tweet to all your followers, on their timeline.

Clicking 'Retweet with comment' will also publish the tweet but, in addtion, give you the opportunity to add a comment to it. This makes it, effectively, your own tweet but, also, quoting the original one.
