If you’ve ever suffered a blister on your index finger, from constantly clicking the “home” or “refresh” button on Twitter.com, I have good news for you! This: Is coming to your Twitter homepage. According to Twitter : We’re starting a limited test of notifications on twitter.com for when you have new tweets. So if one of the folks you follow has tweeted since you loaded your homepage, you’ll get a little notice saying “1 new tweet” that, when clicked, will display the new content. Along with the recent launch of Twitter Lists , this seems to be yet another tactic to get Twitter users to stay engaged . Something that others have suggested is starting to drop off: I’m not seeing the new feature–are you?–but I’m glad to give my index finger a little break.
