Firefox Only: Add a Retweet Button to your Twitter Account Now with Better Twitter

by Molly on 14. Aug, 2009 in Firefox, Screencast, Tools

Better Twitter is a user script that runs using the Firefox Extension Greasemonkey.  It adds a retweet button to updates, enables auto-load to your Twitter stream, and shows in-line conversations of “in reply to” tweets.

You need to have Greasemonkey installed in order to install Better Twitter, but then you’ll be able to reply to tweets when viewing a single tweet, view “in reply to” conversations in-line, and more.

If you’re into more advanced features, you may want to check out PowerTwitter (previously reviewed here) although I found that it slowed Twitter down so much that I eventually had to uninstall it.

To see Better Twitter in action, watch the screencast below (best viewed in HD in full screen):

    I use a similar script called Troy’s Twitter Script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/40617

    It does all kinds of good things to your twitter page.

    This is SO nice. I wish twitter just added a retweet button itself. seems useful.
