An Open Letter to the Twitter Guys
I’m a huge fan of Twitter. It’s revolutionized the way I receive information. I often get breaking news via Twitter long before I hear about it in the mainstream media and even other online newsources—the most recent example being the death of Heath Ledger.
But, despite being one of my favourite web tools, Twitter has it’s problems. Shel Israel’s open letter to Twitter co-creators Evan Williams and Biz Stone sums up a lot of my own feelings toward the service, and what can be done to fix it (although, he’s wrong about the blog, they already have one).
