Copy and paste it into a new tweet and add "RT" to it. There's a difference between the site functioning as intended and the site being all things to all people. Just because there isn't a one-click solution for every feature doesn't mean the site isn't working fine. It means it leaves something to be desired for you. By the same token just because the site works fine for me doesn't mean it's right for everyone else.
I get what you're saying though. I didn't say this to argue that I'm right and you're wrong, I'm just playing devil's advocate. I learned from the replies to my original comment that I am not a typical Twitter user. I had no clue so many people had such a problem with the site. See, I'm socially retarded. I just don't get how to be social online and often offline (the only time I shine socially is when I'm performing like in an interview, selling, or giving a presentation). So my Twitter usage is less than others' and not typical. At the same time, I still think the site does what it was intended for and I havent seen any function of it not available through the web interface.
When it comes down to it, you're right and I'm right. But you're definitely more right.
- rhizome 14y agoRight, because it's not "every feature," it's just probably the most common one after tweeting itself, and one that is probably a top-3 driver for third-party clients. Then again, I'm of the mind that they're rolling up all this functionality in order to launch something new. It's just the beginning, and there's a reason why it's going drip drip drip: building interest.
