Twitter is now taking this thread scene to a whole new level and making it easier for people to engage on their platform.
They have announced a new feature which lets you send out Tweets in a thread if you would like to share info or tell a story. In simple terms, this means you can create a long thread with just a single tweet.
On your compose a Tweet screen you will notice a plus button that allows you to publish your threaded tweets at the same time. You can also add Tweets to your published thread at any time with the new ‘Add another Tweet’ button. For those reading tweets, there’s a new ‘Show this thread’ label.
A few years ago we noticed people creatively stitching Tweets together to share more information or tell a longer story – like this. We saw this approach (which we call “threading”) as an innovative way to present a train of thought, made up of connected but individual elements. Now, hundreds of thousands of threads are Tweeted every day! But this method of Tweeting, while effective and popular, can be tricky for some to create and it’s often tough to read or discover all the Tweets in a thread. That’s why we’re thrilled to share that we’re making it simpler to thread Tweets together, and to find threads, so it’s easier to express yourself on Twitter and stay informed.
The feature is available for the Twitter.com and both iOS and Android.
