@stop The bottom of the logged-in Home feed featured a “more” button to load in more updates, and a short list of tasks that Twitter suggested for new users to complete. Infinite scroll didn’t show up until #newtwitter in 2010.
-
@stop The SUL was dramatically overhauled and split into multiple categories during the launch of #newtwitter in 2010, and further refined based on algorithmic interests a year later. I have no idea if it still exists in some type of form today for new account signups.
-
@stop The logo back then was just text, no bird. We didn’t start using a bird as (or in) a logo until we launched #newtwitter in 2010, which placed a bird next to the wordmark as a transition. We knew we eventually wanted a solo Twitter bird to be as iconic as the swoosh and the apple.
-
@mkruz @f @Zhanna Not quite parallel with a feature per se… but one launch that was almost universally praised (with little crit) was the rollout of Phoenix (aka #newtwitter, the first big redesign of the web client). Partly loved because it was an overdue modernization of the site at the time.
-
@markdalgleish I think we created the birdhouse icon and started using it for home in all clients about 8 or 9 years ago, with the launch of #newtwitter. Current version is mostly unchanged from the original.
-
@mkruz @messl @twitter @SnoopDogg @bhaggs 2009’s bird was drawn by Biz’s friend Phil under Biz’s direction before I arrived. 2010 was mine that launched with Phoenix (#newtwitter), and was the first time we used it as part of the logo. 2012 bird was created by West, & when we dropped the type – the bird became the word.
-
Reminiscing. This was the OG #newtwitter from 2009 (pre native mobile clients).
-
@beep @Twitterrific Small irony that #newtwitter’s internal code name was Phoenix.
-
@jodyferry @mdo @davidbellona @bhaggs No – that went away when #newtwitter got replaced.
-
@SamHowat “1) Simple color cues are gone from the timeline.” Remind me what color cues existed on #newtwitter ?
-
@Deefer Interesting. That’s how it was before on #newtwitter as well. The behavior hasn’t changed, except for where the mini-profile loads.
-
@jonemo Continuation of what was in #newtwitter. Ability to pull up details of a person without leaving context of your current timeline.
-
@jazzpazz Open up any of those tweets in the details pane on #newtwitter. You get the full thread.
-
@MatTomaszewski Interested to hear what you don’t like (or can’t use) about #newtwitter.
-
@mbjwork In #newtwitter, open their profile summary in the right pane, and use the actions dropdown (with the gear).
-
Forced to use OldTwitter on this terminal in Aukland airport. I’ve forgotten how to find my way around without #newtwitter.
-
@Trenti Actually, with #newtwitter, we debated eliminating it there too, but opted instead for a reduced box until it’s focused.
-
@jasonsantamaria @drewm Interesting to note: We updated Twitter’s logo with the launch of #newtwitter, but hardly anyone noticed.
-
@DominicScott Old Twitter won’t stick around forever, so prepare for that now. What don’t you like about #newtwitter?
-
#NewTwitter embedded media now includes blip.tv, Instagram, Rdio, Slideshare, and Dipdive: blog.twitter.com/2010/12/now-pl…
-
Instagram support now embedded in #newtwitter. Here’s a shot from this past weekend at Ardenwood Farms: instagr.am/p/eJw6/
-
@javan You can also just start typing the @ followed by a character or two, and #newtwitter will auto-complete from your following list.
-
@shaneglass Because they’re threaded now by person. (I’m assuming you’re asking about #newtwitter.)
-
@KuraFire I’m noting that my form of auto-list-linking in that last tweet broke in #newtwitter. Reported.
-
@inkpixelspaper What is it about #newtwitter that prevents it from sticking for you?
-
@inkpixelspaper For me, it’s a balanced mix of #newtwitter, Twitter/iPhone, and Tweetie/Mac.
-
@JasonSilvestri That’s what we’ve found too – for some, #newtwitter takes some time to get used to. After that, often golden. /cc @mikeypx
-
.@mattbot Why call it fluff? Elaborate, if you will. Most of the points in that article aren’t directly related to #newtwitter.
-
@AndrewCrow Also, we’re currently missing a “use Twitter in ‘mobile’ version” link in the #newtwitter footer, making the switch back harder.
-
@nwjerseyliz You might be interested in trying a user style sheet I wrote for #newtwitter that reduces it to a single column view…
-
@nwjerseyliz Unfortunately, you know we can’t support two code bases forever, right? How much time have you given #newtwitter?
-
@beep Fantastic job. Really wish we could have done something like that for #newtwitter.
-
I’ll be in NYC next month for @FOWD, speaking about delight, #NewTwitter, and lessons learned. Hope to see you there.
-
Whoah – Freelance Whales song used in the #NewTwitter video was just in a Chevy commercial.
-
@beep I believe we’re planning to make parts of #newtwitter degrade well if JS is off, just haven’t gotten around to it yet. /cc @ded
-
@flyosity Might want to switch and get used to #newtwitter. #oldtwitter won’t be maintained forever. It grows on you, promise.
-
We have to take #newtwitter away from some of you every now and then so that you don’t take it for granted. Remember #oldtwitter? ;-)
-
@lovskogen I assume you’re talking about Settings? That will go away one Settings gets converted to the #newtwitter design.
-
#NewTwitter in the hands of @iamwill – http://youtu.be/GCaj4pOYAPw
-
@Hicksdesign That’s a minor detail that got left out of #NewTwitter accidentally. Should be back in soon.
-
@chebz Design for #newtwitter started months before the iPad client. They both ended up influencing each other.
-
@SamHannagan #oldtwitter won’t last forever. What would you like changed about #newtwitter to make you hate it less? (besides not changing)

To anyone curious about #NewTwitter column proportions, know that we didn’t leave those ratios to chance. http://flic.kr/p/8ETYM7

RT @bs: Fun #NewTwitter Fact: The codename displayed in place of the prototype’s logo was twifyb, Twitter for Your Browsers. http://t.co …
-
#NewTwitter was going to be less ambitious… tcrn.ch/a165p1 Correction: “one-woman, two-man core design team.” /cc @Zhanna
-
@joelsantiago Thanks, Joel. Let us know if you have additional feedback after you’ve used #newtwitter a bit more.
-
@pamelahazelton Second, if you didn’t dismiss the blue “Welcome to #NewTwitter” message at the top, there’s a “leave the preview” link there
-
@reply We changed the default avatar to the egg last week, ahead of the launch of #NewTwitter. I’m not aware of a default to follow you.
