Twitter Rolls Out 'Retweet With Comment' Feature So You Can Write More

Twitter has officially rolled out its ‘retweet with comment’ feature, which, unsurprisingly lets people annotate the tweets of others.

The new tool lets users embed tweets within their own messages, meaning that users still get 140 characters to comment on a tweet.

Available on Twitter’s website and the iPhone app, the feature will roll out to Android handsets soon.

Twitter began testing its tool last summer. Until now, Twitter users have had to embed tweets by cutting and pasting a URL and then adding a comment, within the 140 character limit.

But now the process is available at the touch of a button and is going down well on the social network.
