Proposal: Improvements in conversation threads

[David Grilli]

Hi,

I think there's a lot that can be done and improved about the conversation threads. I know Twitter isn't just for making conversations, but there're tweets that receive many responses; and those responses could receive additional responses as well.

What I'm proposing is a lib/framework for handling conversations in a more intuitive way, so it's easier for users to get more information about the thread and to make replies that get more relevance on the conversation.

If you're interested, we can talk about the idea to get the most possible from it for GSoC and for Twitter users.

Best regards,

While you're idea is great, it's not really in mind with what we want to do with our Summer of Code students. We ourselves are constantly improving the Twitter experience through Embedded Tweets and our ecosystem (e.g., Storify).

We want to focus on the open source projects that we have on GitHub and the open source projects we contribute to outside of GitHub: https://github.com/twitter/twitter.github.com/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code-2012
