While it has been an opt-in feature for the last month or so, starting May 28, Twitter will be force-feeding its users the new profile layout. The new Facebook-esque design features a larger default picture, wider-spread header image (in comparison to the old format) and different timeline views.
Aside from the revamped aesthetics, the new Twitter also allows Tweeters to pin certain tweets to the top of their profile page and filter certain things that they may not want to see.
Though it is hard to figure out how many people have opted-in to the new design already, it does seem that many people are still using the old layout and are not happy about the switch. Are you happy about the new (forced) change? Have you already made the switch? Let us know what you think about Twitter’s new design.
