I like the advice here on adding the RT hat tips *after* the message ("Front Loaded Retweets" as Edward terms them). That is a more sensible practice considering the title char limits in place.

Now all we’re waiting for is some of those Twitter tools like Tweetdeck actually implementing this.

Also try to remember to limit the post to 120 characters for viral purposes. It leaves enough room for a RT without the message truncating. I hate having to modify the post when RT and it may cause users to not RT it.
