twitter hearts

Twitter has announced that it has changed its "Favorite" star icon to a heart called "Likes". According to Twitter, the star "could be confusing, especially to newcomers." The company thinks that replacing it with "Likes" is more appropriate as "you might like a lot of things, but not everything can be your favorite." You can say a lot with a heart.
