Some #Twitter things that the company didn’t build or invent itself

β€’ Twitterrific was the first mobile Twitter app
β€’ The word tweet made its first official appearance on Twitterrific
β€’ The hashtag was from Chris Messina
β€’ Advanced Twitter Search was originally Summize
β€’ Twitter bought TweetDeck
β€’ Live stream was from Periscope acquisition
β€’ The official Twitter app was originally Tweetie which they purchased from Loren Brichter
β€’ Mentioning people with an @ was user driven and wasn’t linked to accounts because they didn’t consider conversations to take place on Twitter initially
β€’ Quote tweet was adopted from people copy+pasting tweets and adding RT in front of the copied tweet
β€’ Threads were built to accomodate existing user behavior

Did I miss anything major?

@aecii_3d@cyberfurz.social I love this!

No, I'm being completely unbiased

Friend: Do you flirt at me, friend?

Me: I do flirt.

Friend: Do you flirt at *me*, friend?

Me[aside]: Is it possible I won't feel awkward if I say 'ay'?

Other friend: no

Me: No, friend, I do not flirt at you, friend, but I do flirt.

Idk maybe I'll get into VR chat after I set up my other computer...
