I don't mean to be a negative Nancy here, but Twitter's direction in the past year has been anything but elegant. Many of these features should have been done a long time ago, instead of letting an eco system grow as deeply as it did, knowing full well that any opportunity to monetize the platform would involve cannibalizing developers and creating resentment. Having said all that, I'm looking forward to these changes as it will definitely create a more cohesive user experience.
