Twitter began rolling out a number of updates Wednesday that are supposed to make it easier to discover and follow the latest news on the service. The updates include a newly-redesigned explore tab, breaking news alerts, curated news on top of people’s timelines and a dedicated content hub for the World Cup.
The goal of these updates was it to make it “as easy to follow an event as it is to follow a person today,” said Twitter VP of product Keith Coleman during a press briefing in San Francisco Tuesday. And with that, Twitter also wants to make it easier for new users to discover news on the service, added the company’s director of curation Joanna Geary. “There are a lot of people on Twitter who don’t have highly curated timelines.”
At the center of the roll-out is a redesigned explore tab, which is being brought to U.
