What does it mean when a celebrity "re-tweet" in Twitter? - Abigail - 09-30-2012 11:59 PM
So, I've been on facebook for a LONG time, now I just wanted to try Twitter cause that where most celebrities share their news. So, I tweeted @HeffronDrive (Kendall Schmidt- Big Time Rush) and the next day, I looked at my tweet again, and below it, it said "Re-Tweeted by @HeffronDrive." Did that mean, he wrote back? If he did, where can I find his response?

a retweet is when you press the retweet button on someone else's tweet.
So that means, the person saw your comment, and retweeted it, so all their followers could see it.
There is no response. You are overthinking it - Twitter is really very simple.

When someone writes something you like on Twitter, you re-tweet it to share it with your friends who might not have seen it.
