Today Twitter is officially opening up Moments so that anyone can curate their own topic-based feed of tweets.

A combination of social content curation service Storify, Facebook’s Canvas and Snapchat’s Live Stories, Moments could be poised to become the social network’s unique spin on Snapchat’s and Instagram’s Stories, if enough people use it. But I already wrote about that potential last month when Twitter announced that the product originally introduced last year would be rolled out to everyone.

For everyone who wants to make a Moment – starting today you can! Creators everywhere can now tell stories with Tweets. pic.twitter.com/ZJtNBoTPWf
