New! Direct Messages are more dynamic than ever with read receipts, typing indicators, and web link previews.

Because what we all wanted was yet another instant messaging app to further fragment the user base.

But non-sinicly seriously though, the writing was on the wall here with Twitter’s recent moves in attempting to expand & retain their user base. Will it make a difference? I doubt it. Facebook has kind of cornered the market here with FB Messenger.
