What's Next for Twitter After Chief Steps Down
With CEO Dick Costolo stepping down, Twitter reassures investors it has a plan.
It's something Costolo wanted investors to know Twitter was doing.
At its first ever \"analyst day\" conference last November, Costolo shared his vision for helping Twitter grow and find new ways to engage its audience.
Among the changes that have been introduced since then are a more seamless video experience within tweets, the ability to direct message multiple people and a \"what you missed\" feature to make sure users see the most relevant tweets.
An instant timeline feature has also been added for new users as a way to help them feel more engaged with Twitter from the start -- and to hopefully keep them coming back to the site.

Two new products, Fabric and Periscope, were also introduced this year. Dorsey said more products are in the pipeline for later this year and he does not anticipate any delays due to the leadership transition.
As a committee vets internal and external candidates for the top position, Dorsey said it's vital whoever takes the reins is \"someone who uses and loves the product in every single way.\"
\"Despite all we have accomplished, the company still has huge unmet potential,\" he said.
Twitter sought to give reassurance to shareholders in a statement that stressed the company's second quarter revenue outlook to be in the range of $470 million to $485 million.
