Could it be possible we have a retweet button displayed in our blogs, next to the Digg button?

In light of the Twitter functionality that has been built into the site, this too would be a welcome addition, making it easier for visitors to tweet our blog posts.

What do others think...would you guys like this feature?

Every blog post has a "ShareThis" link at the bottom. Unless you think we should give a more proeminent place for the Tweet option?

Given how Twitter has taken off, I think it is of more revelance and use than Digg.
So yes, I would love to see it feature more prominently.

Something like the following, which jumps straight to a users Twitter page when clicked, is perfect.
It also shows how many times the article has been retweeted.
