Twitter will test the new features that swipe the timeline to switch the list

In addition to the 'timeline' where tweets from accounts you follow follow, Twitter has a 'list' that lists only your favorite accounts and lists tweets. Twitter announced that it plans to target some users to test new features that can be switched to multiple lists by swiping the timeline screen left or right.
