Twitter On
Soon Twitter is going to launch two new features called "Lists" and "Retweets" which were created by Twitter engineers who watch "how people use the service and which ideas catch on. Then its engineers turn the ideas into new features." A New York Times article talks about how other companies have "morphed" their orginal business idea into to something different and have in turn been more successful.
Read about it.

Nora, these changes were necessary since many people have been moving to third party programs like TweetDeck to gain these features. I'm sure they would rather have direct visits to their site, especially if they ever develop a plan to monetize the site through advertisements.
