Video and Photos on Twitter?! I Can’t Keep Up!

Just when you thought you had mastered how to get the most out of Twitter, the website has changed again! However, this change is really good.

The Wall Street Journal (and tons of other media sources), has reported that Twitter, the micro-blogging website, will now allow its users to click on links to videos and images and view them directly on its website.  They will no longer be re-directed to other places. 

Before this update, the links in Twitter posts (a.k.a. tweets) would take users to the websites where the content was created.  According to Evan Williams, the chief executive of Twitter, “it’s faster, it’s easier, it’s a richer experience, and it’s a better way to discover what’s new in your world.”

Currently, Twitter has over 160 million users, but Facebook is still dominating with more than 500 million subscribers.  However, this new change could help Twitter compete better for advertisers with Facebook and other social networking sites, according to industry experts.
