An automatic retweet is an excellent way of describing it :)

To answer with regard to effectiveness: A friend making an Indie-film used it to promote his film's trailer. He got 31 people to Ecko the trailer and in literally a few hours he crossed 700 views.

The added benefit was also that he got to see which friends generated the most amount of traffic to this trailer.

Thanks to FB's newsfeed algorithm the signal/noise ration greatly varies from person to person.
