"Thank you for the reply. So I've heard another person who said that as well over email so I'm not sure what the difference was. I did just doublecheck and it worked for me. Not sure what is different. Regarding the blocked list, I wanted to add that it's not an official feature that's included in Twitter's Web Interface. Meaning, I can't go to settings and see who I'm blocking. An XML or API call isn't the same cause most users can't do that. A web developer did contact me and said we should build a site that shows you who you're blocking but at t his time, normal users can't get the info easily unless they know this tip you added." - Adam Jackson

"Totally! That was my primary hatred toward the feature at first. The FriendFeed style when people "liked" somethign was nice. I hope Twitter makes it an option but I like this method a lot." - Adam Jackson

"Yeah and I added that I didn't like the UI of the retweet that showed all of the avatars of people that also retweeted but to really enhance discovery, it's a good way to discover people who also tweeted something (like minds)" - Adam Jackson

"Well, this is why FriendFeed is so awesome :) I've seen some internal builds of some upcoming apps some have a button for retweet (using the new API) and others have "edit and retweet" which uses the old way which will allow you to add a comment. That might be a good approach?" - Adam Jackson

"Completely true. I also feel the complexity of it will diminish if the user is using a 3rd party application that doesn't make things as complicated. the interface can be pretty simple I think. My review shows that it can be complicated if you look at things at the granular level but overall, it's an easy approach to a feature that was basically invented by the users. Which is also how "replies" started. and @username as a way to mention someone else. When I joined those features weren't "official"" - Adam Jackson

"Hey Brian. This photo truly has a thousand words that could describe it." - Adam Jackson
