CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey in an event said that they are thinking of adding a feature that will let people add annotation or comment to their tweet if they feel like it has been misunderstood or any other blunder. According to Dorsey, they want to create something that will let people clarify themselves about a tweet.
Twitter already let people add in or continue their tweet by retweeting it and putting in additional information to the previous tweet. The new feature being talked about is considered to be a little different than this.
There are cases were old tweets of people have affected them greatly, in one way or the other. By introducing the clarification feature, it would attach the comment or clarification made with the original tweet, permanently.
