A Twitter update is simple and fast and gets the information and news, and it spreads it very quickly, and it can contain links so you can then link to this whole context of information.

I never even graduated college. I never finished learning, as it were, and I have a psychological need to be in a learning environment at all times.

I started out as an artist, and I continue to think of myself as an artist first, and a technologist and entrepreneur after that.

I think of Twitter as a messaging system that you didn't know you needed until you had it. Think about when cell phones first started coming out. People said, "Why would I carry my phone around?" And now you'll drive back to your house thirty miles if you forget your cell phone.
