Twitter now has an 'activity' tab where the 'retweets' tab used to be. How can I find out which of my tweets have been retweeted, and by whom?

Can't reproduce this - I still have the Retweets tab. Can you include a screenshot? – Abby T. Miller Aug 18 '11 at 1:45
@Abby I bet they haven't rolled it out to everyone yet (or rolled back and I didn't notice). It should look something like the screenshots here. – Anna Lear Aug 18 '11 at 2:06
@Anna Huh! Curiouser and curiouser. – Abby T. Miller Aug 18 '11 at 2:20

The Activity and @username tabs are new features that are currently available to a small percentage of users on Twitter. You can see the latest Retweets of your Tweets under the tab with your @username. Twitter has a help page on this:

What is the tab with my @username?

This tab offers a simple way to see what's happening on Twitter in relation to you. Just click on the new tab with your @username, and you’ll be able to see which of your Tweets are Favorites, plus the latest Retweets (of your Tweets), Tweets directed to you, and your new Followers.

If you'd only like to see your @mentions, click the 'Show mentions only' box.

What is the Activity tab?

The Activity tab provides a rich new source of discovery by highlighting the latest Favorites, Retweets, and Follows from the people you follow on Twitter – all in one place. It’s easier than ever to explore Twitter, connect with people, and discover what’s happening around the world.

Also remember that you can always set your email address in your Twitter settings to receive emails indicating Retweets of your Tweets.

I might be wrong, but I think Eric is looking for a way to see only his tweets that have been retweeted - instead of everything that the Activity page shows. – Abby T. Miller Aug 18 '11 at 2:23
I guess that's as good as it get's. I'd like to see only my tweets that have been retweeted, without mentions (sometimes). – Eric Wilson Aug 18 '11 at 2:33
Please see my edit. – Mehper C. Palavuzlar Aug 18 '11 at 7:14
It does NOT show your tweets retweeted only. You are stuck sorting through all the other items in the activity tab, looking for your retweets. – user14901 Nov 16 '11 at 14:51

The twitter.com/#!/retweeted_of_mine link (which the retweet tab used to go to) still works, but that's not guaranteed to keep functioning after everyone gets migrated to the "activity" UI. Hopefully Twitter will listen to peoples' feedback and keep retweet-specific views alive. – fluffy Nov 20 '11 at 23:20

If you are logged into twitter, going to https://twitter.com/#!/retweeted_of_mine will show your retweeted tweets.

In the new Twitter UI this link is not readily available without linking directly to it.

Timeline Tweets helps with some of the RT problems.
