Sometimes I see people re-twitting a tweet I sent, and I have no idea how they saw it as they are not following me.
Is it because they have some keyword search open and I happen to use one of those words? What are the different ways someone can see a tweet I send?
Best Answer
You've already identified one mechanism - search, either something you tweeted or even your name.
They could have picked up your tweet from the Twitter home page.
You can see the lists of all people - not just those you are following. This shows all the tweets of people in that list.
One of your followers could already have retweeted you - though in this case you should see the original retweet too.
