Example:
RT: @slashdot: Intel's New E-Reader For the Visually Impaired http://bit.ly/10Xapm
Here "RT:" is the label "Retweeting".
Next we give the credit to the originalposter. For this we use the @reply syntax. Here it is "@slashdot"
Next we have added a quick note and a link.
When we retweet its better to retweet content that's relevant and beneficial to your followers.
