Twitter today announced several changes to the desktop and mobile Twitter experience to make relevant breaking news, events, and stories easier to discover.

Going forward, the Explore section of Twitter will be organized using topic tags so users can more quickly see what's happening in news and entertainment and what's most relevant to them.

Twitter is also improving search with related news, events, or stories that are listed at the top of search results when you search for something.

Twitter's "Happening now" timeline that was introduced last year for sports is being expanded to include breaking and personalized news, with Twitter offering up personalized news offerings at the top of your timeline.

Notifications are also being expanded to include news based on user interest in addition to breaking news. These notifications can be toggled off by going to the recommendations section of Twitter's settings.

As for Moments, the feature that aggregates trending news stories and relevant happenings, Twitter is organizing it into a vertical display like the Twitter timeline, rather than a horizontal orientation.

For some Moments in the United States, Twitter is implementing multiple timelines, which are designed to help users see all of the best tweets surrounding a story. These timelines will include a recap showing tweets you may have missed, a collection of the latest tweets, and top commentary.

For the World Cup, which kicks off tomorrow, Twitter has also introduced a dedicated World Cup page that will be available at the top of the timeline on Twitter for web, Android, and iOS.

The Explore, notification, and search changes are coming to iOS and Android "in the coming months," while the changes to Moments are available starting today.

Twitter ruined itself when it stopped being a chronological feed. Now it’s just a pit of vipers with no utility.

Yep I have been trying the official app for the first time in forever the other day and it was a MESS. Went back to Twitterrific almost instantly.

Such a mix of ads, random likes and stuff of people I don’t even follow. No me gusta
