(Putting my normal user hat on here. I'm purposely preventing myself from trying to think hard on the purpose of your site.)<p>"I" don't follow what your site does, even after I see the example. Something to do with retweets, which I thought was just sending someone else's tweet to my friends. But I enter some text and submit, nothing seems to happen. I alt-tab away and come back and a username/password field has appeared, with an empty text box and "60" number. I don't get it.<p>I give up, feeling dumb, and leave the site, to do whatever it was I was doing before.

So it's a text box that creates links that, when clicked, send you over to twitter where you can click submit to turn them into spam?<p>That suggests two groups of users: Spammers to post links, and, uh... stooges to click links. I can see the motivation for the spammers. What exactly is the motivation for people to come to this site and click links?<p>It just doesn't make any sense at all.

I'd love twitterific integration.<p>Umm maybe you could create a dashboard widget (or desktop gadget for vista) - then I'd consider heavy use. Until then I think I will only use it when I REALLY want people to RT something.

pleaseRT.com is too long. What about rt.me ? It's available and then your URLs would be a lot shorter.

who else thought that this was going to be a rate my picture type site?

I would pay money for a button which, when I saw someone retweeting, I could press it and that person would experience an electro-convulsive shock.<p>I think the existence of your app makes the world a worse place. Please take it down.
