Traci — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 00:05:12 +0000

I’ve finally gotten the #newnewtwitter, and I really, really like it. Except for what they’ve done to direct messages. NewNewTwitter is slick and sexy and fast. It has been simplified somewhat, although I do still have to look for some things after having it for a week or two. But direct messages are a task. [...]

When Twitter came out with #newtwitter I got it almost before I heard about it. With #newnewtwitter, it has been a week, and I still don’t have it on the web. I’ve seen it flash on my account [...]
