New Twitter frontpage

Lets face it, the Twitter design has been around for quite a while now, so it was due a change. The designers have completely revamped it, although existing members will not notice any difference until they log out of their account. New users who havn’t yet logged into an account will have noticed the page change on 28^th July 2009.

 

The original concept that Twitter evolved from, was a social networking status portal and community. Of course, since then things have evolved faster than the developers ever imagined, which is why they are constantly updating and redesigning, to ensure that it is fresh. Keeping the site fresh is important. Look at Hi5 and MySpace for instance, they kept their original concept in place and they just seem like a distant memory now.
Twitter is becoming more and more popular each day. And so each day the

developers and designers work on making the portal so much better than before. This includes improving the quality of their search results. Of course, this isn’t all, as Twitter are looking more into the idea of engaging and connecting with new people, their ideas, events and useful information.

The great thing about Twitter is that the developers and designers improve the portal based on what people think. They constantly take on board the feedback and ideas they receive, hoping to make Twitter ever more popular in the long run! Not only this but it shows that they are community orientated and are happy to incorporate others ideas!
