I have definitely done this, no ill will intended here. Just a little fun with words.

MeTweet n. or v. – To republish a tweet by someone else, about you.

It can be a good self promotion tool a slight step down from seeming completely self absorbed. Plus it can serve as a sort of thank you.

Examples

Is MeTweet the best word for this phenomenon? No clue. If you have a better suggestion, by all means, chime in.

Tip: To check someone else’s MeTweets, use this twitter search “@username from:username”. This only works if the person does not talk about themselves alot. It won’t work, for instance, on Gary Vaynerchuk, who ends a lot of tweets with “@GaryVee me“.
