The team behind the Twitter micro-blogging and social networking service recently announced that the Twitter.com homepage has been redesigned, touting the fact that this is a big change for all the millions of people who visit Twitter.com but don’t log into their accounts.

“Every month, hundreds of millions of people come to Twitter to see what’s happening in the world. After all, it’s often the best place to turn to for information and commentary on live events and breaking news,” said Group Product Manager Gabor Cselle.

If you visit Twitter.com and log into your account, you get to enjoy the full Twitter experience. This means that you can go through a complete catalog of public tweets, compose and post a new tweet, interact with tweets, and so on.

If you visit Twitter.com and do not log into your account, you don’t get to enjoy the full Twitter experience. By redesigning its homepage, Twitter wants to help you stay in the loop, even though you didn’t bother to sign into your account.

If you want to know what’s going on by you don’t want to sign into your account, the redesigned Twitter.com website has you covered.

“Starting today, when you go to the twitter.com homepage, you’ll find interesting topics to explore like Politics, Pop Artists and even Cute Animals,” said Gabor Cselle. “Click on the topic and you’ll see a timeline of Tweets from some of the most popular accounts in that topic. It’s rich real-time content, just like the Twitter experience for users who log in.”



Only desktop users in the US can enjoy the redesigned Twitter.com homepage for now. Twitter plans to make the new homepage available to users in other regions in the near future.

So if you’re in the US, go visit Twitter.com and check out the redesigned homepage.
