I'm curious as to what Twitter's direction with these changes are
The old style, which I prefer and find very functional, focuses on the content (the individual tweets)
The new style, focuses on the profile of the author itself, and not their content. Very Facebook-esque direction to focus of the persona instead of the Tweet.

- mhurron 14y agoLets be honest, this is what people want. People beg and plead to get others to follow them, it's not about saying anything, it's about making the person look or feel important/liked/relevant. They're just giving their users what they want.
- yock 14y agoIt's simple, really. Most of the time, when I click through to a user, I'm looking to see who they are. This is likely due to a retweet in my timeline and I'm looking to see how I might be associated with this person. Far less frequently do I click through to see their other tweets.
