HI All

I agree with Susannah that the  best tweet has captured the nuance of a
topic or session.  If you look at  Samantha Dickerson( spelling)  tweets

She has a clear idea how to do tweets.  We had her join the  Social Media
call a few years ago but she wasn't prepared to provide her  "Secret
Sauce"  I would think that we all can provide some help to the  community
on what makes a good tweet.
In my case i focus on the professional high quality photos using a real
camera vs a shaken cell phone in low resolution.  The logic is that
everyone is vain and they want to retweet their  moment in the sun.  My
retweets results in higher numbers but its not quality but vanity
