    • i have not seen any changes to the twitter yet.. and i have a good feeling about it, after all twitter was all about the simplicity, i guess putting up too many features and stuff won’t make it all that simple anymore…

  6. It took me a while to get used to the new Twitter but I definatley think its changed for the better! Its good that they left it four years before changing things too as opposed to Facebook who seem to be changing things every four months!
