SHOW NOTES:

 

IT’S CRAZY NOW, BUT IT’S ALWAYS BEEN SORT OF CRAZY….AND USEFUL

  • Lots of apps tell you what you know, Twitter helps you find what you don’t know
  • Twitter can be real-time, or the beginning of deep-dive scrolling
  • Twitter is the most difficult to understand, but the most valuable

DEPENDENCE ON TWITTER IS MORE COMPLEX THAN A SINGLE CLOUD

  • Twitter removes the barriers of journalists, we get news and opinions and insights
  • Twitter has always given us a way to do research into new things 
  • Twitter has helped us build friendships with people we’ve never met
  • Did we make a mistake in being too reliant on Twitter? Were there other options?
