Currently the twitter feed takes up more screen space than it's worth, IMO. I think the same amount of space should be taken up by a more general (though not explicitly marked) "Dynamic Content" section. My intuitive sense, based on the current page, is that the "static" content, i.e. the longest lived content - language reference, etc. - would be on the left menu, while the shortest lived content (automated and changing constantly, e.g.) would be on the right, with mid-range and introductory stuff in the middle. Thus sweeping from left to right, longest-lived to shortest-lived content. This is a guiding principle which might reduce how hard it is to think about everything, and need not be considered a steadfast rule. To start with, I would take up approximately even-sized vertical chunks of the righthand column with the following: * one headline from the latest digitalmars.D newsgroup posting (possibly subject to a heuristic filter for interestingness), plus link to that forum * one recent headline from digitalmars.announce, plus link * a link the latest issue of This Week in D * the latest tweet, with a link to the list of tweets * a link to a page with less frequently updated, but still relevant publications, e.g. other active D blogs and links to recent articles, reddits, the irc channel, etc.

Might not really be much of an issue.
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/815 This doesn't touch the Twitter feed, just adds a forum widget inside the content. I'm not clear on what Andrei's plans WRT Twitter are.
