RT or ReTweet, in Twitter Terms is similar to a forward in email. If you see something you like, pass it along. If you only have a few followers, don’t over do it. In fact, if you have a thousand+ followers, don’t over do it.

p.s.  thanks for the RT @mfubib

Why is it important
The number one reason why RT is important, is that you can pass along freelance jobs, posted to twitter, from  http://www.surefirehire.com to your network of followers. They will appreciate the job opportunity. Hopefully some day they will return the favor.
