Twitter update Suggested Users List feature

Twitter has been often criticized for their Suggested Users List feature which benefits the Twitter users who are on the list.

Users who are new to Twitter are showcased the list enabling them to follow the popular people on the network.

The original edition enabled users to follow tons of users without giving any thought about it.

Twitter has now made some major changes. Users are now divided into several categories and it has become tough for a newbie to just follow tons of users without making any serious effort.

Twitter spoke about these changes:

These new algorithms help us group these active users into lists of users by interests. Rather than suggesting a random set of 20 users for a new user to follow, now we let users browse into the areas they are interested in and choose who they want to follow from these lists. These lists will be refreshed frequently as the algorithms identify new users who should be suggested in these lists and some that are not as engaging to new users will be removed.
