Twitter starts rolling out new Facebook-like profile design

Back in February, Twitter was busying testing out a new look for desktop that looks very similar to that of Facebook’s desktop look. Now, Twitter has gradually begun rolling the new design out to a select few.

As you’ll see in the example of Michelle Obama’s profile above, the design boasts a larger profile picture with a header photo taking up a large part at the top of the profile instead of the entire page as with the old design.

Also, your tweets that receive more engagement (retweets, replies, favourite) will appear bigger and bolder.

The new design is only available to anyone who’s new to Twitter and a handful of celebrities including Michelle Obama, Kerry Washington and John Legend. The rest of us will have to wait as Twitter rolls it out over the next few weeks.
