New Twitter homepage

Twitter's got a new homepage today. It's been talked about for a while, but nice to see some change to the site. See Mashable and their related links:

Interesting side note: I came across the blog of one of the ex-lead designers at Google who made this post about leaving Google:

and then this post about starting at Twitter:

Fascinating to hear the inside scoop on what happens behinds the scenes. The decision over the color blue that he mentions in the Google post is slightly disturbing.
