Earlier this week <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.twitter.com\/2010\/09\/better-twitter.html\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> announced that the starting Tuesday 14th, 2010 they are rolling out\u00a0 a new Twitter that would slowly be released over the next few weeks. And no, I am not one of the lucky few that get to test this out. But one I get my hands on it will give you review. But from what I found out about it looks good and its finally catching with some of the other micro blogging sites. But is it too late, or is Twitter only going to get better and more popular? We all just have to wait and see\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I am ready for a change. But I am a devoted <a title=\"Hootsuite is one of the best Twitter Clients!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hootsuite.com\" target=\"_blank\">Hootsuite<\/a> user. So these changes do not affect me.<\/p>\n<h2>So What are the Changes That Makes Twitter \u201cNew\u201d?<\/h2>\n<p>The Twitter Blog says Twitter has been completely re-engineered. They say it is faster and provides a richer environment.<\/p>\n<p>When you are on the site, you will see the standard timeline as you have seen in the past, but now under each tweet, you have a lot more options available to use. Another cool feature is you can click on a Tweet and a details panes slides and reveals the content.<\/p>\n<h3>Changes:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>New Design \u2013 The timeline has been updated, details slide out pane added, and the view more Tweets is removed. It now just keeps scrolling!<\/li>\n<li>Media \u2013 You can now embed photos and videos into the timeline. What mean, is when you click on the link it opens in the new slide pane. Twitter has partnered with YouTube, DailyBooth, Flikr, deviantArt, Plixi, Twitgoo, TwitPic, Etsy, USTREAM, Vimeo, Justin.TV, Kickstarter, Kiva, Photozou, TwitVid, and yfrog.<\/li>\n<li>Related content \u2013 is provided on a sliding details pane.<\/li>\n<li>Mini profiles \u2013 Like with most Twitter clients, you can now click on the profile pictures and see many profile of the user that you can see account information including recent Tweets and bio. All this done with out leaving the time page!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Check out This video Twitter did about the new roll out. If you want to see the good part, skip ahead to about 1 minute into it. That\u2019s where you see the entire great feature in use.<\/p>\n<div id=\"scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:59618f74-cb0f-4eba-a1f9-09a1ab8d1aec\" class=\"wlWriterEditableSmartContent\" style=\"padding: 5px 0px; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; width: 425px;\">\n<div><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"425\" height=\"355\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/rIpD7hfffQo&amp;hl=en\" \/><\/object><\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: .8em;\">The New Twitter Rocks!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>All these new features are sexy and very useful. But, its only useful for those that use Twitter from the Twitter.com website and are not using a Twitter client. For most, they will continue to use a client. Why, you ask? So far you still get just the timeline. You can not setup new columns with filters like you can with <a title=\"Hootsuite VS TweetDeck\" href=\"http:\/\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/2010\/05\/07\/hootsuite-versus-tweetdeck\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hootsuite or TweetDeck<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For me, setting up columns, is key. I spend most of my Twitter time looking at certain columns and not just everyone I follow. Most Twitter users who depend the filters and columns, will have to stick with a client until Twitter learns this and implements this into their website.<\/p>\n<p>So what are your thoughts? Are you already using the \u201cNew\u201d Twitter? If so, let know what its like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you ready for the new Twitter?
