Facebooks version of retweet

Facebook has took another stage to keep up with the boom of Twitter with introducing its version of twitters popular retweet functionality. On twitter if you like someones post (tweet) you can retweet the tweet so that it appears on your Twitter wall for you followers to see a form of viral looping. Facebook as made a new feature that allows you to share another friends link on your profile its called “Facebook via” and works exactly the same as the retweet function. At the moment the facebook via is limited to links post on Facebook but soon no dount after some initial testing the featrure will be on everything you can think of on Facebook.

This in our opinion is a great step to secure the top spot as the worlds most favored social networking platform, personally we don’t use twitter ad we finds it a bit pointless on a personal level but its great for marketing strategies for your website or any website.
