Learn facebook! to retain users Twitter self-sabotage

"Sohu It News" Beijing time September 4 News, according to the "Wealth Chinese network" reported that Twitter is trying to attract more new users, while retaining old users. To this end, the website is willing to take the risk of destroying itself as much as possible. 1. More people use Twitter just to complain and argue with each other. The damage is to those who appreciate Twitter's unmatched and constantly updated mass of real-time news and information. However, this segment of the user may be shrinking, and more people are using Twitter just to complain and argue with each other. There is no doubt that "Twitter pinch" is more eye-catching than the Syrian story or the link to climate change. But for users who view Twitter as a source of information rather than a "conversation" platform that is essentially difficult to gauge, the dissonance wastes time and undermines the user experience. But it is understandable that Twitter is less concerned about people who want to use services seriously, than how to attract and retain users. Most people seem to prefer complaining, both as parties and as bystanders. 2, more and more like Facebook, social platform homogenization. That's why Twitter launches the view feature to make it easier for users to talk. This feature allows Twitter to be more friendly to people who love to watch the racks (and, at least sometimes, most of them, especially when it comes to celebrities or internet celebrities). Now, the conversation has been sorted out in chronological order. In the past, it's hardly realistic to keep talking because you often can't figure out what the other piece of information is. Viewing the dialog This feature solves this problem. It also makes Twitter look more like Facebook. This is just the last step in the homogenization of social media platforms, according to Om Malik, founder of GigaOM.com, a well-known technology blogger. After Twitter has added photos, music, and video-sharing apps vine, viewing the dialog feature is "The last step in Twitter's attempt to change to Facebook." "3, more like a message board, 140 word restrictions annoying, content superficial at the same time, this makes Twitter more like a message board." But Twitter still has a 140-word limit, which is annoying for those who insist on using it for chatting. Whatever Twitter is designed to do (the traditional view is that Twitter was invented to allow people to share what they ate at noon, and that's what people did a long time ago, and the word limit and how the service works still make it the perfect way to post headlines and links--and it doesn't work. Facebook posts better provide users with the opportunity to publish ideas and arguments, though not all. Even with Twitter's ability to view conversations, users are severely constrained by the way they express their views. This oneThe platform itself does not provide much room for dialogue, so Twitter talk is almost always superficial. This may be the reason many people like to communicate and debate on it. Because it's so easy--the nature of this system has given you an excuse to express your opinion without explaining it. Do you often see people posting messages saying: "Well, that's not something I can say in 140 words, but ..."? The idea that fools and Wise Men Express in 140 words is relatively different. A wise man who wants to explain his point of view can only have a few bursts of information, but it will also make his statement unpleasant. Why not take a breath out of your blog or Facebook or Google Plus and post a link on Twitter? 4, fortunately also can be customized whatever the reason, people seem to want to insist on using Twitter for this reason. For the rest of us, the ideal scenario would be a service similar to the "Twitter Pro" (but don't want the name to be more goofy than Twitter), where only links and keywords are posted and no complaints are allowed. This seems unlikely to happen, at least in the short term. But thankfully, Twitter is highly customizable. Each user experience is different. Every day, busy texting about "electric hip dancing" and arguing about whether they can succeed in "the gun", his setting is different from the people who watch the Syrian news all day. If you're bored with nagging (or Twitter geek who publishes dozens of or even hundreds of messages a day), focus less on personal accounts and more on institutional accounts. Depending on how often the user publishes the link, decide whether to focus on them-the higher the frequency the better. Sadly, many smart people who publish a lot of good content links have a tendency to get involved in conversations-although the topic of conversation is a little more noble than the "electric Hip Dance", it still weakens interest. While it's not easy to make a choice, you might be better off focusing on them and communicating with them through a number of sentences that you can use to express your thoughts at one breath.
