I don’t use the Twitter web interface too much. Tweetdeck is so far ahead in terms of usability and functionality. However… This weekend I was pretty surprised when I saw a tweet from @MichDdot (here) who had a totally different web interface to mine. I was thinking he must have some inside beta version, but it turned out that what he had was available to all of us…
Anyway, he was kind enough to let me know what he’d done, so I thought I’d share with you how I have managed to make my Twitter web interface much more usable (screenshots below):
Above: Notice changes in interface screenshot (from top to bottom)
- Grader information
- Twitter Search and People Search
- Retweet
- Nested conversations
- Embedded replies
- (I’ve done a heap more on the homepage too)
Above: On the homepage (twiiter/hone) I’ve added:
- Ability to autotype follower names when typing @ or D
- Search
- Following names
- Nested conversations
How is this done?
1. Install GreaseMonkey plugin for FireFox (here)
2. Add custom GreaseMonkey scripts (here) from USerscripts.org
There are dozens of scripts available for customising Twitter, the above are just the ones I chose but there are many more.
Simple! Thanks again to MichDdot for the headsup – a recommended follow!
Any Q’s – ping me on Twitter - Regards, @eunmac

great info!!!
Thanks for the tip!
Can you post links to the scripts that you are using?
I did a search but wasnt able to find all the ones you have on your page…
thanks!
