New Twitter feature lets you share the authorship of a tweet: how CoTweet works and how it affects you

Twitter has been in the spotlight for weeks and the fact is that ever since he announced his purchase by South African tycoon Elon Musk, things have become extremely complicated. In fact, the fact is that a few days ago this acquisition was still not formalized, and it seemed that it would not be carried out.

Now everything has changed, and Elon Musk’s plans have gone ahead, but the founder of Tesla did not stint on creating controversy and, above all, even having the shareholders of the little blue bird social network agree to create a joint lawsuit against your person.

With all of this in mind, it makes sense that Twitter has become a hot topic these days., but that the social network is also able to attract attention with its own means. Of course, this usually comes with the launch of new features and functions that usually no one asked for.

In fact, just a few weeks ago we saw that a new feature it integrated allowed users to share text entries containing more than a thousand words inside the platform. This meant that Twitter had its own network of personal blogs that each person could use in the absence of characters..

The truth is that it quickly fell into oblivion, and, in fact, it is of little use at present. Now Twitter has surprised everyone with a feature that is really interesting in some way.. And, perhaps, now two people can write tweets inside the social network.

Yes, this is something that, in truth, no one asked for. But it looks like Twitter wants to get more social again, and that might be the path it’s taking. What has been noticed thanks to The Verge and the tweet example we have left integrated into the text is that now two names appear in the authorship of the tweet.

The operation is quite simple. The first is to write a tweet, the second is to click on the new icon that appears next to adding a location, and after that a new window will open where you can tag a person to collaborate on a tweet. Of course, CoTweet has established rules..

The first rule is that if you tag a person and, above all, write a tweet, if the other person disapproves, that tweet will automatically be deleted. And that’s what the other person has to approve its posting, and without that, the new Twitter feature doesn’t work, so you can be sure no one will post anything you signed on.
