I like the ideas for twitter on this:

I think some things in this mock up are nifty, but IMHO a major, major drawback of Twitter's approach is that there doesn't seem to be a way to edit a re-tweeted notice before you send it. I really, really want to do that. In Twitter's mockups, I only see a "confirm" step and that seems to retweet the entire notice, unedited. Not a fan.

That said, the notion of being able to "turn off" receiving retweets is interesting. I think that idea sounds pretty good in theory. I'm concerned that it might end up feeling too much like the but-I'm-not- following-the-person-you're-replying-to debacle (I only see your @- replies to people I also follow), which I still really dislike in Twitter….

Hmm….

Which ideas, specifically, did you like in this, BUGabundo?
