Twitter explores ways to limit who can see your tweets

From CNET: Twitter said Thursday that it's exploring new ways for users to control who can see their tweets, including a way for people to limit their audience to "trusted friends" and see tweets from that group first.

Andrew Courter, a product designer at Twitter, gave an early look at some of the ideas the company is considering. Courter, who tweeted from the handle @a_dsgnr, said he's looking for feedback about the ideas. Twitter hasn't yet built any of the products he mentioned in his tweets.

The approach is in line with how Twitter has developed products in the past, which has included gathering comments from its users early in the design process. Getting early feedback could help combat any problems or criticism the company could face if it chooses to roll out a new feature.

Another idea Twitter is considering includes allowing people to tweet from different personas through one account. Users could follow all the personas or individual ones. For example, there'd be a Twitter persona for your thoughts as a parent or worker.
