Twitter launches Custom Timelines for topics & interests #IndiaNEWS #News
Custom Timelines have been designed to enable users to scroll through all posts and Tweets related to a topic of their interest through a single scroll at this hub on Twitter.

These curated feeds or Custom Timelines can be created by third-parties who select and provide content around interests and events, or by Twitter based on general insights. The Popular Videos Timeline created by Twitter, uses similar information to how topics are selected to populate and order video content.

These custom feeds run parallel to the Home timeline and appear on a separate tab after users add a custom Timeline from a prompt. Users can switch between tabs for more control of their Twitter experience as they deep-dive into the content that interests them most.

Content that appears in a custom Timeline is selected and ordered based on relevance to the Timelines theme using information like search terms, Topics, handles, and manual curation. This new update is currently only available on desktop, and not mobile.

For instance, this Custom Timeline lists down all Tweets related to The Bachelorette, a popular TV series, allowing users to view real-time information about the show and relevant happenings, at one place.

Today we launched a new custom Timeline experiment just one of the many things we’re working on over at @TwitterDev There is a lot of potential for the developer community to build features like this in the future, and we are just getting started.
