This was fantastic. I got an email because you shouted out to me and it was definitely the best email of the morning. Forgot to turn the heat on last night so when I woke up and got on gmail I sure as hell wasn't going anywhere for half an hour anyway.

So I read the whole thing. I never realized that I wanted the perspective of someone who was on twitter when it was still interesting (like usenet pre-eternal september or chatroulette pre-mainstream etc) but I definitely did. Because I think it's stupid as shit now and I had no idea if it was always that way. You painted a really fantastic picture of how people used it six years ago.

Thanks!
