ConnectTweet is a tool for Twitter currently under development. It allows one account (eg a corporate account one) to re-post specific tweets from other specific users, making it much clearer whose voice is being transmitted.

This document is unfinished: I am adding to it as I go along.

• The original tweet is published with a hashtag, which may be confusing to other users if it's only purpose is to link it to the corporate account.
• Appending with 'via @...' or 'original post by...' still don't wholly absolve the corporate account of any bad writing or spurious opinion, because it remains unclear whether it went through an editing procedure first. Better may be the option to append with 'Tweeted by...' because at least that makes it clear who wrote it.
• Leaving off an attribution will make it even less clear whose voice it is, because the different tweeters will always have different styles. Therefore it should default to having an attribution, rather than that feature being an 'advanced' feature as is currently the case.
