#2Seems like change for the sake of change and a huge waste of mobile real estate.
Feels very 'Facebook timeline'-y to me.

#4I'm not used to this new design, but thats's to be expected. Visually I think it looks great!

#5It looks good and should work well for businesses. Clearly Facebook inspired, but that's not a bad thing. Also, Twitter was the only major network without cover images (although they had background images).

#6Looks like the App.net profile page.

#7I think this is a big waste of space if you're already following someone, what they're talking about should be the primary focus. I wonder if they'll start with the view scrolled down a bit how cover photos on Facebook do.

#8I'm curious as to what Twitter's direction with these changes are
The old style, which I prefer and find very functional, focuses on the content (the individual tweets)
The new style, focuses on the profile of the author itself, and not their content. Very Facebook-esque direction to focus of the persona instead of the Tweet.

#9I think this is a big waste of space if you're already following someone, what they're talking about should be the primary focus. I wonder if they'll start with the view scrolled down a bit how cover photos on Facebook do.
The iPhone App is the best example of this waste of space.
That banner image takes up about 1/3 of the screen, leaving 2/3 for UI elements, actual information like follower/following and tweet count and one single tweet.
It's not only a waste of space if you are already following someone but also if you want to discover new people to start following. What users are talking about should be the primary focus in every case - whether you are already following the user or not.
