Top Retweets

Twitter1Tomorrow I’m running my Twitterific post, as usual, but I thought I’d run a post that has my top retweets listed.

For non—Twitterers, followers retweet tweets that they find interesting to their followers, who sometimes retweet the link to their followers. Clear as mud, right? :) Basically, the link or the tweet goes viral.

And it’s interesting to me when it happens—some posts are clearly excellent and they get retweeted right away. Some of the links that have a lot of retweets really surprise me.

These are the links that my Twitter followers have found most interesting since June 1:
