Twitter to Show You Tweets from People You Don’t Follow
Published at | Updated at
ABC News(NEW YORK) — Twitter says it’s trying to improve users’ timelines by showing them tweets from people they don’t follow.
Until now, users of the social network have only seen posts from people they follow, with the exception of a few sponsored tweets. But Twitter fears users might be missing out on interesting posts.
“[T]here are times when you might miss out on Tweets we think you’d enjoy,” the company said in a blog post Friday. “To help you keep up with what’s happening, we’ve been testing ways to include these Tweets in your timeline — ones we think you’ll find interesting or entertaining.”
As with some timeline experiments, Twitter says not all users may end up seeing out-of-the-ordinary tweets pop up on their feeds.
