Twitter新版页面问世 都快成Facebook了(图)

    

新华网4月9日电据科技博客网站Gizmodo报道，还记不记得今年年初Twitter号称要推出的页面新设计？现在它又“重出江湖”了。而且还有更多以前我们从未听说过的好东西哦！欢迎来到Facebook和Twitter的组合体，叫什么好呢，Facewitter，还是Twitbook. Twitter 这个酷似Facebook的新页面看上去很不错呦！

其实，尽管跟从前大家所习惯的页面相比有很多改变，但Twitter页面改动并非如二月所传言的那么巨大。这么说吧，如果你是一个脸书（Facebook）的用户，你就会发现二者有很多相似之处。Twitter新页面呈现在我们面前的是自定义个人资料照片，配以一幅背景照，这给人的感觉很像最近的Timeline吧。

更有趣的是，Twitter的新页面让用户拥有更多展示内容的控制权。新版页面在设置个人资料时，用户能将自己最喜欢或者最具代表性的推文从“推特海洋”里提出来，然后在个人资料里“置顶”，这样一来，游客在浏览你的页面时将会看到更多有意思的推文，而不是你对一个火鸡三明治的抱怨。

刨除整体外观不说，毫无疑问，Twitter正在形式和功能上向Facebook无限靠近。新版设计和推文位置控制，再加上不限字数给好友添加图片标签，Twitter的诸多行动表明他们正在忽视自己所得最棒的东西。如果我们想要在Twitter上寻找Facebook的痕迹，我们可不比大费周章直接上Facebook就好了。

Twitters Facebook-Lite Look Kicks In Today, With New Profile Powers

That major redesign Twitter was teasingearlier this year? Its here. And its got a few features we hadnt heard about thrown in for good measure. Welcome to Facewitter, or Twitbook. Its actually pretty nice!

The overhaul isnt quite as dramatic as what circulated in February, although its still a fairly stark change from what youre used to. That is, unless youre a Facebook user. The layout gives you the same custom profile picture paired with a banneresque background shot, familiar to anyone whos visited a Timeline lately.

Whats perhaps more interesting is the newfound control Twitter users will find over what they can display. Once the redesign hits your profile, youll be able to pluck your favorite and/or most representative tweet out from the C A S C A D E and "pin" it to the top of your profile, so that visitors are met with your best food forward instead of a turkey sandwich complaint. You can see an example in Washingtons profile above.

Beyond the look though, theres no question that Twitter continues to march ever close into Facebooks territory in both form and function. The new design and tweet control, combined with the newfound ability to tag people in pictures without losing character count ago, show that Twitter really may be losing sight of what makes it so great after all. If we wanted Facebook, we would be on Facebook.
