On Twitter, a like is a like — unless it's not.
Over the years the "like" button has come to embody several distinct uses on the social media platform: a way to designate appreciation for a tweet, show agreement, or, confusingly, to essentially bookmark the tweet in question for later reading. Thankfully, with Twitter's unveiling of an official new bookmark feature today, that ambiguity will go the way of the star (although, to be fair, we miss the star).

And the process sounds super straightforward.
"To bookmark a Tweet, tap the share icon under the Tweet and select, 'Add Tweet to Bookmarks,'" explains a Twitter press release. "To find it later, tap 'Bookmarks' from your profile icon menu. You can remove Tweets from your Bookmarks at any time."

The press release says this feature is available today, and is "now rolling out globally on Twitter for iOS and Android, Twitter Lite, and mobile.twitter.com."
Notably, this update didn't come out of the blue. Twitter first alerted us to the possibility of bookmarks last October, and it seems the company has finally made good on that promise.

Granted, there's nothing life-changing about this update. However, it does clearly benefit the user in an immediate and real way. And hey, we're totally here for that.
So get to bookmarking, and, while you're at it, clean up that embarrassing "likes" column. Because after today, you no longer really have an excuse.
