Twitter Revamps Site

An announcement last Thursday revealed that Twitter has redesigned its website. This has been the biggest news from the micro-blogging site since Twitter’s creator Jack Dorsey returned as an executive in March. The company said that when people first sign up to use the service, Twitter will help them discover information that might interest them, based on their location and other signals.

The redesign, which will be implicated globally over the next few weeks, will add a section to every Twitter user’s account called “Stories”. This will show users content on Twitter they may find interesting. Twitter, which allows people broadcast messages called “tweets” of up to 140 characters in length, is attempting to become an online-advertising powerhouse but still faces challenges counting the observation that many people don’t understand how to use the service. People use Twitter to keep up with the latest news about everything from technology and politics to transportation delays and promotions by big retailers.
