Twitter has announced that users can now Retweet with GIFs, photos, and videos.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Exciting news: Today we are launching the ability to Retweet with GIF, photos, and video!<\/p>\n

We find solutions to many challenges as we build for a global, vocal audience. Here is a glimpse into our process as we worked on this feature. https:\/\/t.co\/PUMr9DRQ0K<\/a><\/p>\n

Basically, users can now Retweet with a visual that allows them to express more emotion toward what they are retweeting.<\/p>\n

This feature has been highly requested by users for a while.<\/p>\n

According to Twitter, the new feature will include the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Clearer visual hierarchy<\/strong> with a condensed inner Tweet<\/li>\n
  • Including an avatar in the inner Tweet<\/strong> to give more context helping you quickly see who\u2019s talking<\/li>\n
  • Simple box container for easier interacting <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Twitter also announced plans for more retweeting options. Though the message was cryptic, we look forward to seeing the update:<\/p>\n

    “Another update is coming soon to make Retweets with media more interactive and easier to read<\/strong> \u2026 we\u2019re also exploring more ways to help people express themselves,” according to Twitter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
