Meet the new Twitter.com

Today, we’re introducing a new, re-engineered Twitter.com that provides an easier, faster, and richer experience.

On the site, you’ll see the familiar timeline, yet underneath each Tweet is a handful of information, deeper context and even embedded media. Simply click on an individual Tweet and a details pane slides out on the right and reveals this content.

Soon we’ll see the new look on twitter accounts.

Feels like this isn’t exactly breaking news anymore but I’ve got to say I love the new UI. I’ve always used Nambu as my Mac Twitter client, a fantastic app that I still dearly recommend. There’s also a Chrome extension for it.

However, since the new UI was released I’ve been using that instead, along with Fluid app to turn it into a really nice desktop-app-like solution—very neat. Here’s how it looks:

If you too plan to try Fluid, make sure you get yourself some really nice dock icons to go along with the sites. The favicons just aren’t enough.
