Twitter is reportedly testing adding new features to the micro-blogging network, such as “like” and “star” buttons.

It appears that these new buttons might be planned as a replacement for the Favorite button, which has been around since 2008.

The Favourite button has become an important part of Twitter, allowing users to save certain tweets to view again later.

Twitter has yet to comment on the rumoured additions.
