A secure web experience is what every web service is trying to give its users. Gmail went the HTTPS way almost a year ago and even Facebook got into the act. Twitter users can use HTTPS by just adding it to the address bar. But this is a little troublesome and we have to do this every time we visit Twitter.
Twitter has now introduced an option which lets you open Twitter in HTTPS by default.
Most people might be using Twitter on unsecured Wi-fi networks, as most people tend to tweet on the go. This makes the HTTPS option a handy one. Do drop in your comments.

Why is HTTPS useful?
Usually when we use unsecured Wi-fi networks for browsing there is a chance that, someone can snoop at your browsing activity. To avoid this we use HTTPS instead of HTTP. Most services will not offer HTTPS browsing because it does take a bit of load on their servers to provide secure browsing options.Most people might be using Twitter on unsecured Wi-fi networks, as most people tend to tweet on the go.
