Sharing Tweets to Become Available Via Email
Soon you will be able to share your tweets via email, directly from your Twitter account. Already available on the mobile app, you will be able to send a tweet from your Twitter stream to anyone whether the recipient is a Twitter user or not.
As well as sending the tweet to a friend, you can also choose to add a personal comment to accompany it. The comment will be sent in the body of the email rather than on Twitter. This will able users to comment about a tweet without these comments going public.
A Twitter blog post said: “Of course, you can retweet any of these (posts) to your Twitter followers, but sometimes you want to share with another group, like your college roommates or your parents or a friend who isn’t yet on Twitter.”
The option to email will be available under a ‘More’ button beside the Reply, Retweet and Favorite buttons which currently lay below each tweet found on the site.
Rather than just adding an ‘Email Tweet’ button, the feature will appear under a ‘More’ tab, as shown in the screen shot. This suggests that we will possibly be able to do more with tweets in the near future.
This feature will slowly be released to users over the coming weeks.
What do make of this new addition? Do you think it will help your business?
Let us know in the comments below or via Twitter.
