I'm a normal person, and I can't figure it out. Every time I see a link to twitter, I can't tell who is responding to who. It looks like snippets of conversations, but I can rarely figure out the context. I don't think I'm looking at a timeline view, just a particular tweet.
- protomyth 11y agoThat's basically the problem with twitter's web client and not a problem with you understanding of what Twitter is. You expected to click on the link and get a conversation which it is[1], its just displayed horribly. The problem isn't your understanding, its the UI. 1) Its amazing how many people can keep up with group SMS, but run into something very close to it on Twitter and hit a wall because of the crappy way Twitter zooms into a conversation. I got a couple of ideas for UI (one I actually prototyped for my own amusement), but there is no way I'd spend the time to make a working client. I'm pretty sure there are other people who probably have had the same thoughts and they are all shelved.
