VIDEO : Twitter's Unveils Secret Plan to Bring Live Events to Its Platform

Twitter may be stepping up its live events coverage, after all.
The company is planning to release a new feature, called Project Lightning, later this year. The photo-centric tool will allow users to browse tweets based on live events. Company executives, including outgoing CEO Dick Costolo, outlined their vision for the new Twitter experience in a recent interview with Buzzfeed.
Project Lightning will be curated around live events, almost like Twitter's version of Snapchat Stories. Project Lightning could also go a long way toward helping Twitter address its ongoing struggle with user growth.??
