Last week I told you about the new Google, Google Instant. This week (09/16/2010) it’s Twitter’s turn with New Twitter!
Yesterday Twitter announced a completely new Twitter.com which includes, 16 new media partnerships, including YouTube, Vimeo, Flickr, UStream and TwitVid, and a new look that mimics several aspects of Facebook. The new Twitter is also optimized for mobile, in-stream video and pictures, and integrates trending topics and lists better.
You can also now Tweet a video or picture without the user clicking on a link and it will be formatted properly for mobile devices.
Twitter hosts 90 million tweets a day and receives 370,000 new sign-ups a day, of which 16% are via mobile devices!
If you don’t see the New Twitter, you will soon. Just keep checking because it’s rolling out over the next few weeks.
Twitter wants everyone to know that there is a lot on Twitter for everyone to discover and that they’re focusing on mobile!
Hmm? Twitter in partnership with YouTube! Hmm? Google owns YouTube!
Oh, then there’s the partnership with Flickr! Yahoo owns Flickr!
I’m scratching my chin and thinking . . . is there a potential here for a bidding battle for a buyout?!!!
One more thing! Google has declared it is focusing on mobile from here on, Apple has declared it is a “Mobile” company, Twitter is now focusing on Mobile!
Where do you think your focus should be?!!!
Ok, I’m done after this one last point: YouTube now ranks second in user searches! Just below Google and has recently taken second place away from Yahoo. This leads to speculation that YouTube could knock Google out of first place in the not too distant future!
Ya think you might want to focus on VIDEO too?!!!
Stay tuned!
ACT NOW BEFORE YOUR COMPETITION DOES!
