I don't really mind so much not being able to add comments... you can still do retweets the old way, after all... but I don't like seeing people in my stream that I'm not following. In that moment, I imagine the person I actually am following is gone and has been replaced by this other person. A simple change of the avatar (or maybe even some reformatting that includes two avatars) is def the way to go.<br><br>As for iPhone: Twittelator Pro. Best iPhone twitter client by far in terms of features. The guy(s) who develop that app are always at the front of the pack in leveraging new apis. They've had RTs labeled and compartmentalized within the app for weeks it seems. Twitter let developers start working with the RT feature at least month before they started the beta themselves. Twittelator was actually letting you do auto retweets for weeks before the official beta roll out.<br><br>I know this post is from a couple weeks back... but I've wanted to weigh in on this too.

I don't like avatars of people I'm not following showing up in my feed. I kind of like though that you can't alter the retweet. I know a lot of people don't generate much new content, they just add their own remarks to the retweeted content. Forces us to find original content to tweet if we want the credit.
