Windows 10: Twitter Introduces New Refreshed and Updated Twitter.com Website

We’ve been testing aspects of this for a while so we could make sure the new site reflected how you use Twitter. Thanks to hundreds of thousands of responses we received during those tests, Twitter.com’s features make conversations easier to find and follow – and just a bit more fun:

• More of What’s Happening: We’ve brought over Explore to bring you the same great content found in our apps; expect more live video and local moments personalized for wherever you are in the world. Get context with profile information within conversations and check out your Top Trends in any view so you never miss what’s happening.
• Easy Access to Your Favorite Features: Bookmarks, Lists, and your Profile are right up front and have their own spot on the side navigation, making it easier and faster to jump between different tabs.
• Direct Messages All in One Place: Direct Messages have been expanded so you can see your conversations and send messages all from the same view. Now there’s less hassle switching between screens to send a message.
• Login, Logout Struggle No More: Whether you have one profile or a few, now you’re also able to switch between accounts faster, directly from the side navigation; your stan, foodie and cat meme accounts thank you.
• Make Twitter Yours: The love is real for dark mode themes Dim and Lights Out. You’ve asked for even more ways to personalize Twitter so we’re bringing you different themes and color options, along with two options for dark mode.

Today is a big step as we continue building Twitter to best serve the people who use it every day. This update also gives us a much stronger foundation to build on so we can continue to bring you updated features faster than before.

Want to hear more from our team on how they redesigned and built Twitter.com? Check out our engineering blog series “New Nest: Building the New Twitter.com” which shares more on how we rebuilt the website from the ground up.

We’re looking forward to hearing what you think about our new site, so check it out and take it for a spin at Twitter.com.

Twitter integration into the 'What's New' section of the People hub.

The Twitter feed integration is still in its infancy, so there are some limitations to how it works. As of right now, there is no way through the "What's New" section to allow Twitter contacts to show, if those contacts are filtered out of your contact list.
It would be a nice feature suggestion on the
User Voice Site.

For now, you may have to use a Twitter App or the Twitter website to see all of your twitter contacts.

 

TechPowerUp on Twitter

I've got TPU email and MSN alerts...that's perfect for me and works like a charm. When I found out about Twitter, I vowed not to take part....bad enough I'm on facebook. I'll leave Twitter for the twittering twits...*Laugh :laugh: j/k

Edit: Ironically, e-mail notification and MSN alerts is how I got this update. So proof it's all I need!! *Big Grin

 

TechPowerUp on Twitter

Hi guys from Taipei!

Well we also use twitter to post fun, personal happenings in our lives when working for TPU. Those of you, who have taken a look at the twitter page, will see that we even post stuff about daily happenings which have nothing to do with our work, but with our personal experience due to being where we are.

And it also gives us a informal and fun way to post or thoughts and opinions on topics as they are happening, without the need of a notebook and internet.

We will also be using Twitter to post a message when we review something at times. This way people who generally follow us on twitter, but do not have the website in their daily routine, can take a look at things if they want to.

If you guys want to add me personally (and see me grinning from ear to ear ^^), go to DarkSaber (@DarkZaber) | Twitter

cheers
