Twitter has released a new homepage screen which is a massive improvement on the old one. Twitter hopes to convince newcomers that it’s a good service to use, by adding a feature called “See who’s here” that introduces new Twitter users to some of the celebrities and brands they can find on the service.
Twitter has also included a new, constantly updated section for Top Tweets, which are algorithmically selected interesting tweets. Twitter’s homepage is important because it’s typically the first thing people see when they visit Twitter for the first time.
Most users would bypass the homepage all together and sign in directly, but the move is intended to attract new visitors by clearing up exactly what Twitter is, and by changing people describing the site as a Facebook status only page.
The last time Twitter refreshed its homepage was last summer, when it started featuring its search engine front and center.
