A1: Twitter Lists still aren't being utilized as much as they could be. I've found them to be very beneficial! #TwitterSmarter
— Express Writers (@ExpWriters) October 19, 2017
A1: I think #twittermoment is underutilized. It is not best explained / coherent to the avarage #twitter user #twittersmarter
A1. Definitely Twitter Lists and Moments as well. Great ways to curate content and keep track of top engagers! #TwitterSmarter

— Su Doyle (@sudoyle) 19 October 2017
A1) Probably lists! You can create your own lists or subscribe to lists created by others. Viewing a list timeline will show you a stream of Tweets from only the accounts on that list. #TwitterSmarter

— Janette Speyer (@JanetteSpeyer) 19 October 2017
A2: If you want to cut through for curation, use lists. If you want your #content to cut through, use hashtags & visuals. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/phMVhGD3QR
A2) Blocked words + following topics/people via lists, not directly following#twittersmarter https://t.co/QSSNUzepZM
— Real Estate Writer (@RealEstateWrtr) October 19, 2017
A2. Search and the advanced search can assist locally and nationally. I have done an international search for leads. #TwitterSmarter
— Dr. Dorrie Cooper (@sittingpretty61) October 19, 2017
A2. Curated lists + TweetDeck. Though I wish I could save searches in TD along w/ mobile + @evernote for saving articles #twittersmarter pic.twitter.com/XiPzad3M3E

Q3: The last two year’s updates by Twitter – The best and the worst? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/PDFMmZco4L
A3: The best has to be moments, cyber-bullying and UI updates. Worst – the removal of our fav star into a heart *sob #TwitterSmarter
A3: Best – Twitter Moments. Worst – the possibility of 280 characters. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/sHJEgkTWvN
A3: Moments. I'm excited to learn more about this feature. Adding more characters. Please give us an "Edit" button! #twittersmarter
— Maria Marchewka (@_MariaMarchewka) 19 October 2017
A3. Best: Videos + Moments.
Worst: Not providing same features cross platforms + Circle photos! #TwitterSmarter— Su Doyle (@sudoyle) 19 October 2017
A3: Can we ever get an update with an "edit" button? #TwitterSmarter
A3.
That media
no longer
takes up some of the
140 characters.
A3) Been neutral on most changes. Looking for breakthroughs. Read they may start bookmarking tweets. That'd be a great move. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/zkLy7mE0ba
A3: Twitter should have let us keep the star for favourites, as well as give us the heart for likes #TwitterSmarter
Q4: Feature you love the most or can’t wait to have on Twitter? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/wx7gOZMnSp
A4: Can’t wait to have #280Characters and I love Twitter lists and Twitter cards the most! #TwitterSmarter
A4: I believe Twitter is bringing out a bookmarking feature ‘save tweets’ for later reading function -woo! #TwitterSmarter
Some want an 'edit tweet' feature.. this will ruin Retweets – can you imagine people going in later adding in stuff? NO! #twittersmarter
A4: I'd an edit feature on Twitter. Please @jack @twitter, we'd this. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/eOZWHq0b63
A4: Editing tweets; adding moments to tweets. You can create a tweet with a moment easily not vice versa #twittersmarter
A4: For me the feature I can't wait to have would be the "edit tweet" button. Typos drive me crazy! #twittersmarter
A4: I can't wait to have a save feature instead of digging through liked tweets trying to find one. #TwitterSmarter
A4 I would love to be able to schedule a tweet while writing it #twittersmarter
A4: As I said in the last tweet, an option to edit tweets within a certain time frame would be great. ?? #TwitterSmarter
A4: Troll Button w/ Low Voltage Electric Shock. Kind of like static electricity for standing hair. #twittersmarter
— YoPedro (@YoPedro) October 19, 2017
A4. I hope @TweetDeck can add GIFs. it will be so much easier to use during chats. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/AJxTvZBwOI

A4.
More
anti-spam efforts!
A4: I LOVE the GIF feature! Makes my posts so much more fun & engaging. I think everyone would like to see an edit button. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/y4d1NJblVt
#twittersmarter A4 They need a way for people to show interest in a tweet without the heart/favorite. "Liking" bad news seems wrong.
— Jeavonna (@jchapstk) October 19, 2017
A4 Better, faster and transparent spam / trolls and improper content reporting & "cleaning" of Twitter is my big wish. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/UTFkQcya4U
