Retweeting also expands your role as a content curator. If you want to become known as a source of adult learning knowledge, retweeting interesting information from others on Twitter is a great strategy to take. I think of Retweets as blog comments. Back again to my last blog post, retweeting is an act performed most often by Mavens.
