Though it may not turn the social Web upside down, Twitter is reportedly testing the term ‘like’ or ‘star’ in the place of the traditional ‘favorite.’
“Favorites have been a part of Twitter from very early on in the site’s history, and have been available to users from at least 2008 on,” writes The Next Web’s Matthew
Panzarino. “I’m not a fan of either of the new terms … favorite suits me just fine, and it sets Twitter’s implementation of this kind of thing apart.”
