Breaking donw Twitter's new Home page

Thursday, July 30, 2009 - from WebPro News

Huge emphasis on search and trend analysis
 


On Tuesday, we told you about the launch ofTwitter's new homepage. The revamped design sports a sleek look that is pretty easy on the eye. But, once you get past the pleasing aesthetics, you'll also see that Twitter has added a search capabilityand popular topics, which in turn could mean an influx of Twitterers. 

 

It should be noted that 
most Twitterers won't ever see the new homepage, unless they logout of course. But, the new layout isn't for the "everyday Twitter user", it's meant for the non-tweeting crowd, or those that don't see the use for it. Recently, WebProNews featured an article, "The Average American Still Unfamiliar With Twitter", which discussed this very topic. It seems as though Twitter hopes the new homepage will help herd in some of the non-Twitter users
