Makes Twitter a bit better

Image from store
Better Bird
Description from store

This Google Chrome extension will:

- Move content (timeline) to the left-hand side and the dashboard to the right for easier reading.
- Expand shortened URL’s wherever possible, so you know where you are actually clicking.
- Display your saved searches & @mentions.
- Hide “Trends”, “Who to Follow”, and “#Discover”
- Widen the layout and (optionally) use a serif font

It’s open source, too: https://github.com/clipperhouse/BetterBird

Uses the lovely Twitter icons from Design Junction.

Would be amazing if it all worked; none of the "Hide..." settings do anything.

This simple extension add sanity back into the Twitter web ui

Really does the simplest things to make the Twitter homepage a much better product. It's extensions like this that Twitter should be assisting rather than controlling.

A very unintrusive extension that puts content in the middle of the page and unshortens links.
