Twitter is attempting to provide a uniform experience of it’s service, regardless of device limitations and quality of signal, by updating it’s mobile version of the site.
Designed for users who access Twitter from feature phones via web (appose to those who use native apps on their smartphone) the update to the site, that first appeared last December, uses 33% less bandwidth than the previous iteration. In a blog post published yesterday (May 7th), Satya Patel, Vice President of Product said: “We’re rolling out this new mobile web experience starting today, and will continue to make Twitter the most accessible way to connect with the world, even with the weakest signals and the simplest devices.”
