I was fascinated with jeans, because you can impress your life upon the jeans you wear. The way you sit imprints on the jeans.

The first complaint we hear from everyone is: 'Why would I want to join this stupid useless thing and know what my brother's eating for lunch?' But that really misses the point because Twitter is fundamentally recipient-controlled - you choose to listen and you choose to leave. But you also choose what to put down and what to share.

My goal is to simplify complexity. I just want to build stuff that really simplifies our base human interaction.

TweetDeck is a very interesting client, because it presents a view that no other client in the world presents, which is this multicolumn, massive amounts of information in one pane. And people really, really enjoy that.

There's an entire universe in every single tweet, and it all really depends on the content as far as how it's going to spread.

What's interesting about Twitter and the influencers that someone follows - like, say, Shaquille O'Neal - is that they see someone who is using the exact same tools that they have access to, and I think that inspires this hope to be able to really engage with someone like him.

It's empowering to be asked to look at what's possible, not told how to do it.

Revolution looks at the intersection ahead and pushes people to do the right thing.

My mom cares that I tweeted a picture of my breakfast. She's knows I'm eating and I'm safe.

An idea that can change the course of the company can come from anywhere.

IM is interesting because you look at your buddy list and, at a glance, see what your friends are listening to, what they're working on, what they're doing. The problem was that you were bound to the computer keyboard.
Jack Dorsey
Image
I'm less interested in how people are following each other and more interested in how they are following topics and tweets themselves. People are following more key words and concepts and more ideas and acting on those rather than individuals or organizations.

I said a long time ago that Foursquare can make cities better. You have these augmented realities like Foursquare and Twitter and Facebook that provide these virtual nodes and instant feedback from anywhere, adding annotation around a physical places.

Everyone has an idea, but it's really about executing the idea and attracting other people to help you with the idea.

I fell in love with flora of all types, especially ferns. Loved the sparse structure and repetition of shape - almost fractal.

You don't have to start from scratch to do something interesting. You don't have to start from scratch to have a massive impact on the world. You have to have a good idea. You have to convince other people of those good ideas. And you have to push as quickly as possible.

Twitter has been my life's work in many senses. It started with a fascination with cities and how they work, and what's going on in them right now.

Technology to me does two things: it increases the velocity of communication and increases the number of people who can participate. That's it. That's really all technology for our entire history has ever done.

I love cities, and I love city governments in particular. But in politics it would have taken me 8 years from implementing a policy before I would get to see the feedback. With programming I could model the same policies and see the impact immediately. Technology is a far more efficient way to test.
