I study ReTweets because I believe they offer an unprecedented window into how people spread ideas. And while Twitter may be threatening to mangle them, I think they’re still the most important innovation to come from microblogging yet.
I gave this presentation, or a version of it, at a few conferences this summer and since then I’ve done a bunch more analysis. So I added all my new data to the slideshow, included a video interview with me after Social Media Camp and uploaded it to SlideShare for your viewing pleasure.
If you like this presentation, vote for it on SlideShare and vote for my panel at SXSW.
