TWIttER’S LAtESt FEAtURE WILL IDENtIFY YOUR BFF

NEW YORK: Twitter is testing a new feature that will highlight tweets from a select, single person it thinks you should not miss. A single person’s tweets will get their own spot on your timeline. The feature is similar to Twitter’s “In Case You Missed It”, which rounds up the tweets from those accounts you more regularly engage with, or others that Twitter thinks you might like. Like the “ICYMI” feature, users can dismiss this new “BFF” module when it appears, letting Twitter know that you want to see this feature less often. “The account it chooses to show you is based on a number of signals—how often you engage with the account in question,” the report said, adding the test was underway.
