Umm.... different resources entirely. I'm sure the folks worrying about the bottlenecks on the servers are not the front page designers.

YEAH!!! Finally! If you don't know what you get out of Twitter and you got to the home page, you would have NO IDEA what on earth your about to take on. LOL. I think they are losing out by not changing it.

Thank GOD. I managed to explain to a friend in only 2000 words how you reply - http://rhodester.net/the-po... - and the rest of the basics in only another 4000 words or so. Awfully complicated service for something that only lets you post in 140 characters or less.

Adam - I appreciate your post. I am glad to see that Twitter is going to invest some resources improving their home page. If I had to rely on the present site (I use Tweet Deck) I wouldn't be there very often because it is impossible to follow the people you are most interested in following.

There are a couple of management programs I recommend Tweet Deck and Seesmic - it will be interesting to see if Twitter can top the usefulness of these applications. Thank you for the info!

I don't think Twitter is anywhere near as useful for (trad) business as it is for arts orgs and creative agencies, who don't just require people, but make things *about* people. (the difference between the monologue of business and the dialogue of arts). I wrote a Twitter for Arts Orgs doc which has been taken up by Arts Council England... http://www.getambition.com/...

I wish they would concentrate more on their uptime than on the look of their homepage.

It seems that twitter guys have received many tweets asking for a homepage.great idea ,this would make twitter more and more popular in the coming days.Let's make it a severe viral so that no one remains untouched from twitter.

That's great news! I was one of those people who checked it out over a year ago and got turned off thinking it was a waste of time based on the home page. I was led to it again a couple of months ago, signed on for whatever reason, and then I got it! When I tell someone about it (which I do because I now love it!), it's almost embarrassing when they then go and check out the home page. I'm glad this is being addressed! Yeah Twitter!

Actually, I was one of the people that received a invite to Knoyce before it launches and I was skeptical about it too. But really, it's pretty sweet. I think a lot of people will like it honestly. It's not a scam. They really have all the things they say they do.

For me it does not matter much any more :) But lets hope it will be useful for potential users.

Great! Any ETA on when it's supposed to occur? Cheers! @brianjking me if you'd like.

Finally. Just don't make it uggo twitter.

And I'm not entirely sure I want it to be easier for people to understand.

It'd be nice if it became more like FriendFeed... with Likes and Comments so conversations can be a bit more fluid.

Adam Ostrow — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 12:39:31 -0000

agreed ... it also seems like it's evolved to where most updates aren't exactly a response "what are you doing?"
