The first thing everybody thought when Twitter announced an official sharing button was “Uh, but what about TweetMeme?” The popular tweet sharing site — it’s like a Digg based on retweets! — is just the latest third-party service to get some competition from Twitter itself, but Tweetmeme is a different case than the clients and ad networks which met with a similar fate earlier this year. See, TweetMeme realized that they likely wouldn’t survive by competing with Twitter’s Tweet Button, so they made a deal to help launch it. The terms of the arrangement are unclear, but the Tweet Button will certainly benefit from TweetMeme’s expertise. Twitter will also get the benefit of TweetMeme’s userbase, because TweetMeme will now be pointing to the Tweet Button. Check out Twitter’s Tweet Button video, plus more Twitter news, after the jump
