Sandwiched in between monumental feature releases like Twitter Lists and the geolocation API has been Twitter’s most controversial feature yet: native support of retweets.

The official rollout of the new retweet functionality started earlier in the month, which CEO Evan Williams felt compelled to explain in detail. Now, however, the feature is live to all.
