If you've ever used Facebook or Twitter, you're already familiar with Google Buzz's latest feature: reshare. Resharing is the equivalent of sharing in Facebook or retweeting in Twitter. It quickly shares someone else's post in your stream, with your commentary added and a link back to the original source.

It's not so much that reshare is a cool new feature, just Google playing the inevitable catchup with social networks that are a lot older than Buzz. It's unsurprising that Google says reshare was one of the top user requests for Buzz, considering how ubiquitous it is on other major services. One neat quirk of reshare that I think other sites can learn from (I'm looking at you, Tumblr!) is that liking a reshare doesn't automatically show up as a like of the original post.
