Twitter pushes related news features to facilitate understanding of the context of tweets

"Sohu It News", August 20, Twitter launched a feature called "Related News" (Related headlines) in Monday, which can display relevant news reports from other media on the permanent link page of a tweet. So as to facilitate the user to understand the context of the tweet. Not all tweets have "related news"-only hot or important tweets that are inserted into articles by other media. Twitter introduced the feature as an example of NBA star Jeson Collins Jason Collins: "All the support I've gained today is very encouraging," he said in a tweet. I know I have chosen a path that few people walk, but I am not alone on this road. "A lot of people who look at this tweet may not know what he's saying, but if you click on the" related news "from ESPN, Fox Sports News, Mashable, and so on, you can see that this tweet is related to Collins's openness to his" gay "identity. "Related news" enables users to gain a deeper understanding of the background when browsing through tweets, thereby helping to increase Twitter traffic. Twitter also noted on the developer's blog that "related news" also helped increase the number of clicks and readership of the collaborative website. (Yau LA)
