This is really nice, even on desktop. And fast. Love it.

Looking at them side by side you really get a sense of how much 'stuff' Twitter Heavy has compared to Twitter Lite.

It would be so good if they could apply a bit of this stripped down approach to the main site and really work on list/follow management features.

I'd really love to get more out of Twitter as there are a lot of great people on there but (unless I'm missing something obvious) there doesn't really seems to be many tools built in to help you do that.

A lot of those tools are in TweetDeck. Not sure why Twitter didn't integrate it more post-acquisition.

With this new mobile site, does each twitter page still run javascript constantly?

EDIT: it seems they do not, thank god for that.
