The "Hey, look, someone really likes me!" retweet
How do you feel about this? Personally, I think that if you have to retweet someone's tweet about you, it sounds like you're suffering from a bit of an insecurity complex. If you're a lone blogger trying to get some RT love, that's probably forgivable. But what if you are a search engine ostensibly backed by millions of Redmond marketing dollars?
Looking at the tweetstream for "bing randfish" we can see that @randfish tweeted about it himself, and plenty of others followed suit. @bing can keep a high profile by staying out of the RT exchange. Why not use your RT love to let others know about someone or something you think deserves some credit - other than yourself? That way, they will probably be more inclined to return the favor the next time you score a big visibility opp with one of the biggest names in SEO.
