Twitter stops using Helevetica Neue in favour of Gotham

I&#x27;m getting so frustrated with Twitter, as a shareholder and big believer in the company. I really think they need to be focusing on new services and experiences (actual new functionality!) with the content on their platform.<p>For example, many of their users are quite passive - why not improve the experience for the logged-out user? Twitter could be a great source of real-time news for <i>everyone</i> - not just heavy users of the platform.<p>In addition, did you know that if you paste a url into the search you can see the tweets that link to it? There are great conversations happening about published stories - yet that content has no way to get surfaced, really. I should be able to see the twitter conversations that are happening around every piece of content on the web, and I can&#x27;t! That&#x27;s crazy.<p>I get that design is important, but Twitter needs to innovate on its product. Rant over.

I care less about what font is used and more about not having the text displayed at seemingly random sizes from one page to another, or even on the same page. Insanity!

Here is a comparison with Helvetica (not HN) and Gotham with commentary and history:<p><a href="http://thinkcreateblog.wordpress.com/2010/03/26/face-off/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;thinkcreateblog.wordpress.com&#x2F;2010&#x2F;03&#x2F;26&#x2F;face-off&#x2F;</a>

What about us Windows users that have always seen Arial?<p>With all honesty, Gotham looks very bad when drawn by the ClearType renderer.

I&#x27;m by no means a typography expert, in fact I don&#x27;t particularly care about typography all that much. I like the new font, but there&#x27;s some characters (e.g. &quot;o&quot;) that just seem like they have an extra pixel or two on the outer edge. It still looks nice and clean though.

It looks good. But Helvetica was good too. Anyone have any thoughts on why the switch?

Does the tracking seem really wide to anyone else? It makes the tweets difficult to read and causes the words to blend together.

EDIT: Oops, posted in the wrong spot, this was meant to be a reply to tvladeck&#x27;s post.<p><i>&quot;In addition, did you know that if you paste a url into the search you can see the tweets that link to it? There are great conversations happening about published stories - yet that content has no way to get surfaced&quot;</i><p>I&#x27;ve done this before to view what people are saying about a link or story, but I disagree about &quot;great conversations&quot; taking place. A lot of people simply re-tweet a link or add a few words, but I&#x27;d argue that often there is no great insight or &quot;discussion&quot; and most of it is disconnected from other twitter users. (Can you really have a great &quot;conversation&quot; using a 140 character limit?)<p>I do agree that twitter doesn&#x27;t use it&#x27;s content to best effect. There are a lot of users who cluster around shared interests and twitter could aggregate interesting links that are constantly being posted around topics. Other sites like Buzzfeed and Storify editorialise a story by picking tweets that reflect a range of opinions around a story. Is this something that Twitter should do? (I don&#x27;t know) It would be a shift in focus for them and something not all users would welcome.<p>Anyway, back to the original story - I&#x27;m glad they&#x27;ve dropped Helevtica. It&#x27;s too over-used and feels like a bland but safe choice for designers. Not sure about Gotham yet. It feels a bit too tall and narrow.

Hilarious. It was totally noticeable today when I visited a user Twitter homepage. I actually thought they started allowing user customizations per page. I thought the MySpace conversion was starting in earnest.

Honestly all of the new design changes at Twitter have been looking awful. I can only assume there is someone new in charge that is messing everything up.

Well, now it seems like they totally screwed up with non-latin characters.

On my non retina mac this doesn&#x27;t look very good at all. Obviously I need a new laptop to keep up with Twitter.

Is anybody else bothered by the amount of news this is causing?

Twitter just went from being an ubiquitous part of our everyday lives to some silly art project.<p>#wrongmove
