Twitter Tweaks Its "Compose Tweet" Into "What's Happening"

You shouldn’t be surprised with the frenzy of new features being unveiled day after day on Twitter and Facebook.  Twitter being inspired by Facebook changed their background pictures to look exactly like your Facebook cover photo feature. Now, instead of the “Compose Tweet” bar on the left side of your Twitter has been tweaked to top-centre of your home timeline. Many users found it similar to the Facebook status update box. Although there is one minute difference. Twitter prompts you by asking "What's Happening?" and Facebook asks "What's on your mind?”
