Twitter unveils expanded features

Twitter has expanded its follow feature with the bow of its new “You Both Follow” function. As the name implies, it will show you tweets that both you and someone you follow have in common.
Testing for the new feature began two months ago, and it is now available to most users, if not everyone. The feature is somewhat similar to the “mutual friends” feature on Facebook, and to see this new feature, simply go to another user’s profile, and you will see the “You Both Follow” feature in the sidebar.
There is also a “view all” link, which will allow you to see the full list of people that you both follow. This could be a valuable feature for those looking to find common ground with those they follow, or simply just for the fun of it. Are you using the new feature?
