    16 reasons why the Twitter @message change isn’t a big deal… | Business on Twitter

    So, Twitter have changed the way you can view @messages and people are in uproar.

    Basically, the change means that if someone you follow replies to someone you DON’T follow, then you won’t see that message in your Twitter stream.

    Well I say “Yay!”

    But people are complaining, arms are raised, and uproar is being tweeted, retweeted and re-retweeted. Hashtags galore are being deployed, and people are complaining that ‘Twitter are taking away our choice’.

    Well, I just don’t get the fuss.

    Why would you want to see half a conversation? Why would you want your Twitter stream clogged up with “@whoever LOL” when you don’t even follow @whoever?

    As I see it, if you follow both parts of the conversation, then you still see the @ messages, but if you only follow one part of the conversation, you won’t.

    Maybe I don’t care because I’ve had my settings set to this mode from the beginning - I really don’t want to have to read half of a conversation and then look thought the person I don’t follow to see what is being talked about.
