Twitter launches Moments feature

October 7, 2015

Twitter launches Moments feature, for now it is only being rolled out in America but will be heading to Europe soon, Moments tab will be divided into sections including news, sports and entertainment.

It works by grouping together interesting and important tweets on single subjects – which you can then read, even if you don’t follow the people tweeting them.

Moments will appear in a special tab rather than on your timeline, It is hoped that it will be especially popular for breaking news and live sport.

 
In a blog post the company wrote: “For stories that update very frequently — like live sporting events or awards shows where it’s critical to know what’s happening minute by minute — you’ll see an option to follow the Moment, which blends the Tweets directly into your timeline. So you can keep track of the latest updates in real time without having to tap back and forth between tabs. When that story ends, so do the Tweets, leaving your timeline just as it was before.”

A great way of sharing our “Breaking News” and other news items we hope.
