How does Twitter come up with their related headlines?

As you can see on this recent tweet by Matt Cutts, many retweets are featured as part of the related headlines. And, the comments which actually add content, rather than just spread the tweet around are pushed further down the page. This doesn't really seem to be worthwhile in terms of 'related headlines'. I would expect to see some good commentary as top headline rather than a simple retweet.

It's weird because I have more nee actually seen anything like this before. I didn't realise that Twitter did this, maybe they did it before but have since removed it because they don't currently do anything like this. Twitter does this quite easily actually. All they have to do is find a few tweets that have similar keywords to the current tweet that you are looking and then display them below the main tweet.
