We’ve seen more and more tweetstorms on the platform. They've been used for everything from sharing breaking news to expanding on a thought.
The team began by working with data science (
@ECraigStar @seidtweets & Alex Rosen sorry cant find your @..) and research (
@perirhinal @shanebjohnston) to learn more about the prevalence and impact of threads on Twitter.
We then set out to embrace and simplify this new and emerging behavior through a quick creation experience (just tap the +!) and consumption enhancements.
Huge huge shoutout to my very talented design partner @yuuuanw. With her expertise on tweet anatomy and timelines, we split up this project as she lead consumption and I worked on creation. And of course thanks to the many folks on @design who helped shape this.pic.twitter.com/c2gjCZT3Pb
On the creation side of things, prototyping proved vital early on as we played with a ton of different concepts and interactions. I made a few dozen different @framer prototypes. Here was an early web creation one:pic.twitter.com/cGfWYmGDBi
And an early iOS prototype that we showed as a demo to @jack on my phone

After the initial design concepting, we spent a long time getting very cozy with the amazing folks on our iOS, Android, web and various backend teams. Here's our amazing PM @thecleanmachine in action:pic.twitter.com/yPB1SRFntD
And today we launched! Now I no longer have to live in fear of @CaseyNewton noticing that my some of my threaded tweets had the exact same timestamp as I was dogfooding this functionality. 
Will we get the ability to thread existing tweets, so you can add in missing items or remove unnecessary ones?
