Twitter's new timeline is here, and it's all about the algorithm

Twitter's new algorithms have arrived

The company pushed out an update Wednesday that makes its much-talked-about timeline redesign official. The new feature, which is live on Twitter's app and website now, will show tweets that are sorted based on relevancy, rather than chronology, at the top of your timeline.

While this is a significant update for Twitter, it's by no means the end of the reverse-chronological timeline, which has been one of the service's signature features, despite the fears of vocal users.
