2/So many around the world have helped make Twitter what it is, but there's one group I'd like to thank today: journalists.
-
-
-
3/Journalists play a critical role in our society: keep the world honest and balanced. They are true servants of the people.
-
4/After the tech early-adopters, journalists were next to take to Twitter. They used it as a source, to break news, and to link their work.
-
5/Journalists were a big part of why we grew so quickly and still a big reason why people use Twitter: news. It's a natural fit.
-
6/Twitter makes journalism better by providing direct access to the people and events as they happen.
-
7/Journalists make Twitter better by providing context, research, and a balanced perspective drawn from what the people experience.
-
8/THANK YOU for keeping the world (and us!) honest and using Twitter to do your work. We wouldn't be here without you.
-
9/And an extra-special thanks to the one who first broke the news that http://twttr.com was a thing:
@om! We love you Om!
