Twitter Page Updates – Widgets

My Twitter account has been very buggy today. It looks like they are rolling out some changes. Just noticed a new widget section on the right side navigation. Not sure if we will get the search box and trends I reported on earlier.

New widget link:

New Twitter Navigation Bar?

Is Twitter rolling out a new nav bar? My twitter account now has a trend link and a search box in the top navigation. http://search.twitter.com/search?q=twitter+navigation

How do I explain Twitter?

Yesterday, I found myself trying to explain Twitter to someone not familiar with the service. He really didn’t get it, so I pulled out the trusty iphone, fired up Twitterific and showed him Twitter in real time.

He loved it.

Today I found this video. Twitter in plain English. Very well done. Moving forward this video will be my reference guide.
