Twitter’s homepage got a new look Tuesday, featuring a scrolling list of “top tweets” designed to give non-members a look at what they’re missing.
The new design, which Twitter called a test and a “work in progress” on its official blog, is topped by a banner featuring Twitter’s top trending topics. Scrolling over those topics gives an explanation of why a particular word or phrase was popular at that time.
Below that is a feed that looks similar to a Twitter user’s live feed, featuring a constantly changing list of 140-character (or less) messages.
