Twitter launches new Facebook-style version of their website

Twitter has made some new changes to their social network and has launched their new version of the site with the biggest shake-up. The new look of the site resembles with that of Facebook,
which has four basic key areas like Home, Connect, Discover, and Me.

The new design, which was dubbed Fly Twitter, will be updated to the social network’s 300 million users in the upcoming weeks, while updates for iPhone, Android and TweetDeck apps have
been released already on Thursday.

One of the most significant introductions in the new Twitter design was its Discover page. This page features trending topics and popular discussions from around the web. The Connect tab
includes mentions, retweets and new followers of the users.

Twitter said in their official blogpost, “Today we introduce a new version of Twitter. We’ve simplified the design to make it easier than ever to follow what you care about, connect with
others and discover something new.”

It further stated, “What we’re announcing today is just the beginning. We now have a framework in place that we will quickly build and iterate upon to help users connect with whatever
is meaningful to them.”

Twitter also introduced slick new brand pages featuring adverts and promoted tweets. The recent update in design is the biggest since Dick Costolo, chief executive, spoke about the company’s
vision in March this year.
