Devil hides in detail: subtle changes in new Twitter

Twitter.com has made a major revision, and the new Twitter version will be open to users in the next few weeks. Yesterday we gave a detailed explanation of Twitter.com's behind-the-scenes story, today we look at some details of Twitter-ui.

"What ' s-happening?" No more aggressive.

"What ' s-happening?" The text box is still at the top of the first message flow, but narrower than it was originally. By default there is no "tweet" button, click the text box to appear. This is in line with previous Twitter CEO Evan Williams: Twitter is not just a tweet, it's an exploration.

Real name appears

Now you can see the user's real name next to the user's Twitter nickname and display it in a gray font. This is a subtle, beautiful change.

New method of sending and pushing

The "What ' happening" input box is still at the top of the message flow, but is no longer the only way to send it. You can click on the top right corner of the pen paper button to bring up an input box, from here you can also send a push. Or you can use the keyboard shortcut "n" to pull out this input box.

Support Flickr Collection

You can share a set of Flickr images on Twitter with a link, and you can see thumbnails on the right. Below the thumbnail, you can also see an automatically generated slide. Very handsome.

DM area More Concise

The message area, the previous DM, is now more concise and easier to navigate. There are hints on the toolbar when new messages are available.

"?" Pull up keyboard shortcuts

Click "?" on the keyboard. You can bring up a shortcut key Description box. "N" is a push, "M" is to send a letter to others, "R" Reply, and so on. Remember the "J" and "K" Shortcuts in Gmail? It's the same here, cool.

"." Refresh

The most useful shortcut key is ".", and you can refresh your message flow. can help you save a lot of time.

Larger profile page Avatar

You can see more clearly.

Obvious forwarding (Retweet) and collection (favorite) labels

There is a green shadow flag in the upper-left corner of the forwarding tweet. The collection of tweets will have a shaded yellow star icon. Obviously this is from the http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/1577.html ">iphone version of Twitter to learn from."

Add Latest Favorites and lists

In the standard right-hand sidebar, you can see the latest collection of tweets and the list you recently joined.

Filter search results with linked tweets and near-by tweets

If you search on Twitter, you can filter by whether you have a link or a tweet near you. The latter is useful if you are looking for information about the neighborhood.

New Error Hints

When there is a problem, the new Twitter will not collapse, but rather half. For example, when you load an archive page for too long, you can see a short hint with a "try again" link and a Twitter status blog link. The failed blue whale is not extinct and will continue to emerge.

Recommended function "Who to Follow" for expansion

The "Who to Follow" feature now recommends four users, originally two.

Forwarding Layers

When forwarding a tweet, you can see a special layer and more specifically prompt you to forward the message. The Big Blue Yes button is very eye-catching.

You can see a picture when you send a tweet with a picture

Previously on Twitter, you could see only one link, and now you can see the embedded picture. You can view it below the tweet, or you can browse it in the right-hand sidebar.

Interesting discovery, huh? If you have more new discoveries, tell me in the comments.
