The social media network is changing the way you view your timeline on Twitter.
On March 3, 2016, Twitter users will be able to witness a whole new look of the micro-blogging website’s timeline display as it had decided to redesign the entire format, which will include embedded profiles, collections and lists. During the Flight Developer Conference held in October, Twitter stated that it will be rolling out its embedded grids which would also display publisher’s profiles and posts well tired together on their timeline.
After this new display feature is launched, users will be able to integrate their profiles and posts together with the help of the new timeline – however, they will not be bound to maintain their customized settings and no changes will be made to that unless the users himself does so.
With the help of the redesigned timeline display publisher’s posts and profiles will be shown in a more rich and responsive manner and will get a better response. Another thing that the user will not have to worry about is the ‘remove media’ option. As per the new default settings, the content will automatically be expanded on the posts and tweets of the publisher.
Twitter is making its efforts to attract more traffic towards its website, and this feature is an example of that. By promoting its content outside of the social media site it is exactly heading in that direction; as through this people who are not signed up on the website yet can still see posts made by publishers. It is making sure that its efforts do not go in vain as the update will be providing benefit to not only the publishers but also the developers.
On the other hand, Twitter stock has gone up by almost 25% after touching its all-time low a few weeks back but it is still 30% below its Initial Public Offering – IPO share price of $26. Analysts believe that if the social media giant ever wants to reach its IPO share price, it will have to work on getting as many users on its platform as possible – user growth is the only way Twitter can get back in the social media game again. However, a number of analysts do not have a bullish stance on the stock of the company – 27 analysts have given the stock a rating of ‘Hold’ while 13 have suggested a ‘buy’, as per the report by Thomson One Analytics.
