Twitter Displays Real Time Tweet Updates

Users of Twitter [1] web interface have always had one complaint. Every time they have wanted to check new tweets, they have had to refresh the webpage manually. However, with the recent sweeping changes being done @twitter, including the most wanted retweet feature [2], looks like twitter is catching up with third party apps like TweetDeck [3] pretty quickly.

As you can see from the above screenshot, twitter now automatically updates the title and provides an option to view new tweets without having to refresh the entire page.
Clicking on the orange update box in the webpage will load the new tweets in the web interface. Looks like twitter is finally giving in to the most wanted features by users and rolling them out gradually. However, will this brighten their future? Considering that twitter is losing users faster and also dropped traffic in October, these new features will only help to keep more and more users engaged on the site.
