The message appeared to retuits most retweeted throughout the service, for our contacts and retweeted messages sent by the user that others have decided to reward giving retweeted button. It was particularly useful for the latter use to measure the success of the messages.

The new version mentions and links in one tab retuits which becomes @ username (whatever you call the social network). In the same you can see who answers, who adds a bookmark or decides content and retweeted.

Where once were the retuits now is a section called "Activity", unclear and constantly updated. It is a mix of content: what they like, retweeted and discuss our contacts with the most popular social network, all in one thread.
