Twitter makes it easier to follow long conversations on website

Twitter has introduced a new feature to its client which will change the way tweets appear on the website. Now, when a user clicks on a tweet, it will open a separate window within your given timeline. This will be applicable for ant tweet and will also be available for tweets that have one or more replies too. At the moment, the change only appears to affect tweets in Twitter’s website and it is not clear if the company has plans to expand the feature to its other products. https://twitter.com/Support/status/694580760246947840 Once you click on a tweet, it will open in a separate window, in your timeline itself. Earlier, expanding a dialog would flood the replies inside the  timeline. Twitter has stated that this change will make it easier for people to follow conversations, without losing their place, which critics have long cited as one of the more confusing aspects of the site. Last month, Twitter began weaving live Periscope video broadcasts into timelines streamed to its application tailored for Apple mobile devices. The mobile application lets people use smartphone cameras and microphones to live-stream what is happening around them, complete with commentary. The rollout to Apple devices marked the first merging of Periscope with Twitter, and came with a promise that the live-streaming feature was heading for mobile devices powered by Google-backed Android software.
