Twitter is not a business. I know its founders would like to think it is. It is, for the most part, a diversion.

Twitter is the first information that I ingest in the morning. When there are important things happening, friends of mine who follow news feeds will report on it, so I find out about most major news on Twitter.

'What is Twitter?' has always been a tough question to answer.

There was never a game plan to be on social media. Like most things in life, if you work consistently and at your pace, then things fall into place.

I was reluctant to join Twitter. My biggest concern was, I don't want these thoughts that pop into my brain to be immediately broadcast. There's a danger in that. And also - who cares?

Twitter isn't a social network, it's an information network.

When people come to Twitter and they want to express something in the world, the technology fades away. It's them writing a simple message and them knowing that people are going to see it.

Twitter has a several-hour advantage in getting information.

Twitter is wonderful. You can kill rumours instantly.

Twitter is so short, it's safe. I don't want my bosses to be like, 'Hey, your script is due and we saw you wrote four blog pages.'
